IKS-6726 Featured Functions
3-23
Master/Slave
This indicates whether or not the IKS-6726 is the master of the Turbo Ring. This field appears only for Turbo
Ring or Turbo Ring V2.
NOTE The user does not need to assign the master to use Turbo Ring or Turbo Ring V2. If no master is assigned, the
Turbo Ring protocol will automatically assign master status to one of the IKS series Ethernet switches in the
ring. The master is only used to determine which segment serves as the backup path.
Redundant Ports Status (1st Port, 2nd Port)
Ring Coupling Ports Status (Coupling Port, Coupling Control Port)
The Ports Status indicators show Forwarding for normal transmission, Blocking if the port is part of a
backup path that is currently blocked, and Link down if there is no connection.
