The EIR505 series of Industrial Switches incorporate the X-Ring Protocol to
ensure network reliability and system restoration within 300 ms in the event
of a connection failure. The X-Ring algorithm is similar to the spanning tree
protocol (STP)algorithm but it has faster recovery time. The following figure

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) can be thought of as a broadcast domain that exists
within a switch or a defined set of switches. By grouping switch ports into
VLANs, traffic flooding is limited since devices can only communicate
directly with devices belonging to the VLAN. Creating a VLAN from a switch
is the logical equivalent of reconnecting a group of devices to another Layer
2 switch. However, the network devices retain their same physical
connection. The EIR505 series switches support port-based and 802.1Q
(tagged-based) VLAN. In the default configuration, the VLAN option is
disabled.
VLAN Configuration interface
Port-based VLAN
With port-based VLAN, the port is assigned to a VLAN. Therefore all
devices attached to a given port should be members of the same VLAN. As
with other VLAN configurations, the packets forwarded using this method do
not leak into other VLAN domains on the network. After the port has been
assigned to a VLAN, devices on the port cannot send to or receive from
devices in other VLANs without the intervention of another layer 3 device or
the ability to tag the data packet with a specific PVID.

uses a technique to insert a “tag” into the Ethernet frame. The tag contains a
VLAN Identifier (VID).
When the 802.1Q VLAN is enabled, all ports on the switch belong to a
default VLAN (VID 1). The default VLAN can’t be deled. The EIR505 series
will support up to 64 VLAN groups.

multiple VLAN groups, it can still perform management functions as
long as one VLAN group ID is equal to the Management VLAN ID.

with the lowest value has the highest priorit y and is selected as the root.
If the value changes, the switch must be rebooted. The priority value
must be multiple of 4096 according to the protocol standard rule.

receiving Spanning-tree Protocol configuration messages before
attempting a reconfiguration. Enter a value between 6 and 40.

3. Priority: Network Priority. Enter a number from 0 to 240. The value must
be a multipl e of 16
4. Admin P2P: Some of the rapid state transactions that are possible
within RSTP are dependent upon whether the port concerned can only
be connected to one other bridge (i.e. it is served by a point-to-point LAN
segment), or whether it can be connected to two or more bridges (i.e. it
is served by a shared medium LAN segment). This function allows the
P2P status of the link to be manipulated administratively. True is P2P
enabling. False is P2P disabling
5. Admin Edge: The port directly connected to end stations cannot create
a bridging loop. To configure the port as an edge port, set the port to
“True” status

X-Ring provides network redundancy similar to the Spanning Tree and
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocols. However, recovery time is greatly reduced
when the X-Ring protocol is used. The protocol identifies one switch as the
Ring Master. Packets are blocked from the redundant path unless a ring
member becomes disconnected from the rest of the network. When this
happens, the protocol automatically restores connectivity using the
redundant path.
In the X-Ring topology, every switch should enable X-Ring function and
assign two member ports to the r ing. Only one switch in the X-Ring gr oup
would be set as the backup switch. Other switches are called working
switches and their two member ports are called working ports. If a network
connection failure occurs, the backup port will automatically become a
working port to recover.
The switch has a Dipswitch to configure the switch as the ring master. The

ring master has the rights to negotiate and place a command to other
switches in the X-Ring group. If more than one switch is in master mode,
the software will select the switch with lowest MAC address number as the
ring master. An LED on the front panel indicates that the switch is the ring
master.
