Setting up Turbo Chain
1. Select the Head Switch, Tail Switch, and Member Switches.
2. Configure one port as the Head port and one port as the Member port in the Head switch,
configure one port as the Tail port and one port as the Member port in the Tail switch, and
configure two ports as Member ports in each of the Member switches.
3. Connect the Head switch, Tail switch, and Member switches as shown in the diagram.
The path connected to the Head port is the main path, and the path connected to the Tail port is the
backup path of the Turbo Chain. Normally, packets are transmitted through the Head Port to the
LAN Network. If any Turbo Chain path is disconnected, the Tail Port will be activated to continue
packet transmissions.
