Fig. 36: Example of a HIPER-Ring combined with link aggregation
The example above illustrates a HIPER-Ring. A link aggregation connection
forms a segment of the ring. The HIPER-Ring function does not activate the
redundant link of the ring until all connecting links of the link aggregation
connection have been interrupted.
Note: Please note that the respective HIPER-Ring port is involved in the sel-
ected link aggregation.
