link aggregation
For Power MICE and MACH 4000:
To increase the security on particularly critical connections, you can combine
the HIPER-Ring (see on page 21 „Ring Redundancy")
redundancy functions.

Figure 6: Example of a HIPER-Ring / link aggregation combination
RM = Ring Manager
A = link aggregation
B = HIPER-Ring
The above example shows a HIPER-Ring. One link aggregation forms a
segment of the ring. When all the connection lines of the link aggregation are
interrupted, the HIPER-Ring function activates the redundant line of the ring.
