For this to work, your Linux box + needs (at least) two physical Ethernet interfaces. + + For DANH, it must be connected as a node in a ring network together + with other HSR capable nodes. All Ethernet frames sent over the HSR + device will be sent in both directions on the ring (over both slave + ports), giving a redundant, instant fail-over network. Each HSR node + in the ring acts like a bridge for HSR frames, but filters frames + that have been forwarded earlier. + + For DANP, it must be connected as a node connecting to two + separate networks over the two slave interfaces. Like HSR, Ethernet + frames sent over the PRP device will be sent to both networks giving + a redundant, instant fail-over network. Unlike HSR, PRP networks + can have Singly Attached Nodes (SAN) such as PC, printer, bridges + etc and will be able to communicate with DANP nodes. + + This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as + described in IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0) and IEC 62439-3:2012 (HSRv1), + and PRP standard described in IEC 62439-4:2012 (PRP), but no + compliancy tests have been made. Use iproute2 to select the protocol + you would like to use. + + You need to perform any and all necessary tests yourself before + relying on this code in a safety critical system! + + If unsure, say N. -- cgit v1.2.3
