Pittiplatsch Posts: 1368 Rating: (128)	Hello lloydsteve, with a standard X-200, you can build ONE ring, because you only can configure 2 ring ports. Would you like to make network redundancy (LAN A and LAN B, so in case of an error in LAN A, the communication still works over LAN B)? Or do you want two rings in two different networks? Please give feedback... THX

Sprawl Posts: 58 Rating: (10)	In order to get an useful answer, you should at least tell people what kind of rings you are using there. None of the switches can be connected directly to multipe rings. There is standby with HRP but it's never like a switch got 4 ringports. You could use a S627 if: 1. The subnets of the rings differ, so communication is routed and layer 3 only. 2. Not both of the rings are HRP. MRP/HRP or MRP/MRP will work. http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/75022213

There is standby with HRP but it's never like a switch got 4 ringports. Actually, this is still true for X200, not true for all switches. With X300 and X414 FW V4.0 you can make up to 4 rings at same time. This configuration must be done with Step 7 Siemens Technical Support
