User Manual Managed Switches When configuring a redundant ring, all switches on the same ring must be configured to use the same redundancy protocol. You cannot mix the O-Ring, MRP or STP/RSTP/MSTP protocols on the same ring. The following table lists the key differences between the features of each protocol. Use this information to evaluate the benefits of each, and then determine which features are most suitable for your network.
User Manual Managed Switches For copper-based Gigabit Ethernet connections the link loss detection is not used as trigger for ring topology change due to the physical design, as a link loss recognition takes a time of several hundred millisecond. Instead, for copper-based Gigabit Ethernet connections control packets are sent cyclic to achieve the fast recovery time of 30ms (Method 2).
User Manual Managed Switches 3.6.2.3 Dual Homing Configuration Dual Homing provides a redundant connection between an O-Ring network and an RSTP network. For a Dual Homing connection on any two switches inside of the O-Ring network a Homing port needs to be selected and enabled. Each configured Homing port must be connected to a RSTP enabled port on any switch of the RSTP network.

For example, the default priority setting of Weidmüller switches is 32768. • Each port has a cost that specifies the efficiency of each link. The efficiency cost is usually determined by the bandwidth of the link, with less efficient links assigned a higher cost.

User Manual Managed Switches • Bridge A has been selected as the Root Bridge, since it was determined to have the lowest Bridge Identifier on the network. • Since Bridge A is the Root Bridge, it is also the Designated Bridge for LAN segment 1. Port 1 on Bridge A is selected as the Designated Bridge Port for LAN Segment 1.
User Manual Managed Switches STP/RSTP only depend on the physical connections, whilst MSTP configures separate Spanning Tree instances for different VLAN groups. The main concepts that are specific of MSTP when comparing with STP/RSTP are: • Multiple Spanning Tree Instances (MSTIs). An MST instance (MSTI) is a particular set of VLANs that are all using the same spanning tree.

User Manual Managed Switches Benefits of VLANs The main benefit of VLANs is that they provide a network segmentation system that is far more flexible than traditional networks. Using VLANs also provides you with three other benefits: • VLANs ease the relocation of devices on networks: With traditional networks, network administrators spend most of their time dealing with moves and changes.
User Manual Managed Switches A typical host (e.g., clients) will be untagged members of one VLAN, defined as "Access Port" in the Weidmüller switch, while inter-switch connections will be tagged members of all VLANs, defined as "Trunk Port" in the Weidmüller switch. The IEEE Std 802.1Q-1998 defines how VLANs operate within an open packet-switched network.

User Manual Managed Switches Network with multicast filtering Hosts only receive dedicated traffic from other hosts belonging to the same group. The Weidmüller switch supports both automatic multicast filtering with IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) Snooping and manual multicast filtering by adding static multicast IP addresses.
User Manual Managed Switches • When an IP host receives a query packet, it sends a report packet back that identifies the multicast group that the end-station would like to join. • When the report packet arrives at a port on a switch with IGMP Snooping enabled, the switch knows that the port should forward traffic for the multicast group, and then proceeds to forward the packet to the router.
