Application and functions Properties of the CP Application The CP is intended for use in an S7400 or S7400H (faulttolerant) automation system. It allows the S7400 / S7400H to be connected to Industrial Ethernet. The CP has the following interfaces: •...
Application and functions 1.2 Communication services ① Connection to port X1P1 of the Ethernet interface (ISO transport) ② Connection of the RNA interface to a PRP network ③ Connection to port X2P1 of the RNA interface (ISO transport / ISO-on-TCP / TCP) Figure 1-1 CP 442-1 RNA - connection variants Communication services...
Network topology with redundancy (PRP) Redundant Network Access (RNA) In Siemens Industry, Redundant Network Access (RNA) stands for devices and software that support the redundancy protocol "Parallel Redundancy Protocol" (PRP). RNA allows the connection of devices to redundant Ethernet network structures.
Page 14
Application and functions 1.3 Network topology with redundancy (PRP) Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) The Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is a redundancy protocol for Ethernet networks. It is specified in IEC 62439-3. The areas of application of PRP are distributed applications with high reliability demands that depend on the high availability of the network.
Page 15
Application and functions 1.3 Network topology with redundancy (PRP) Connecting up and cabling Each frame duplicate sent using the PRP mechanisms is given in identifier that specifies whether it is sent via LAN A or LAN B. Note Cabling Make sure that all the PRP ports of the nodes and the SCALANCE X204RNA / RUGGEDCOM RS950G on LAN A and LAN B are connected correctly.
Application and functions 1.4 Further services and characteristics of the CP Example of a configuration for a PRP network The following figure shows the options for connecting devices in a network topology in which the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is used.
