Dual-Homing Configuration for Turbo Ring V2
Dual-homing is only supported with Turbo Ring V2 and is used to connect two networks through a single
Ethernet switch. The primary path is the operating connection, and the backup path is a back-up connection
that is activated in the event that the primary path connection fails.
