AcuLink 810 Data Aquisition Server
8.1.4 RSTP
The RSTP protocol allows users to create an Ethernet daisy chain using the two Ethernet
ports of the AcuLink 810. The 810 can be daisy chained to a network switch/router, other
AcuLink 810, and other devices supporting the RSTP protocol.
On the 810 web interface the RSTP protocol can be enabled in the network configuration
page. Once enabled users will notice there is only one setting for both Ethernet ports as both
ports would now be using the RSTP configured IP address instead of two unique IP address-
es.
Users can configure the AcuLink IP manually or by setting the DHCP as Auto.
NOTE: When the RSTP is enabled users will not be able to configure Ethernet 1 and Ethernet 2,
there is only 1 IP for the AcuLink using RSTP protocol.
Network Topology
Users can can daisy chain up to 32 devices using the RSTP protocol. This can cut down the
amount of network switches required in different applications and allows the use of 1 net-
work switch/router to be used with up to 32 devices. Each device can be accessed by config-
uring a unique IP address or having the IP addresses assigned automatically by the network.
