Segment N+1
Master
If the number of Ethernet switches in the Turbo Ring
is 2N+1 (an odd number), the backup segment is the
(N+1)st segment counting counterclockwise.
For the example shown here, N=1, so that N+1=2.

For Turbo Ring V2, the backup segment is the
segment connected to the 2nd redundant port on
the master.
Please refer to Configuring Turbo Ring V2 later in
this chapter.
Ring Coupling Configuration
For some systems, it may not be convenient to connect all devices in the system in a single redundant ring,
since some devices could be located in a remote area. For these systems, Ring Coupling can be used to group
devices into smaller redundant rings that communicate with each other.
ATTENTION
In a VLAN environment, the user must set Redundant Port Coupling Port and Coupling Control Port to
join all VLANs, since these ports act as the backbone to transmit all packets of different VLANs to the
different IKS series Ethernet switches.

To configure the ring coupling for a Turbo Ring, select two IKS series Ethernet switches (e.g., Switch A and B
in the above figure) in the ring, and another two IKS series Ethernet switches in the adjacent ring (e.g., Switch
C and D).
