APPENDIX B: B.1 PRP AND HSR ETHERNET PROTOCOLS GEK-113000-AFF650 DIGITAL BAY CONTROLLER b-5 PRP can be enabled in configuration through a setting available on the network configuration menu (Product Setup? Communication Settings? Network (Ethernet), REDUNDANCY, which already has the capability of enabling Failover redundancy. When REDUNDANCY is set to PRP, the ports dedicated for PRP operate in redundant mode. The rights associated with configuring PRP follow the security requirements for network configuration. PRP management through SNMP MIB is not supported, as F650 doesn’t currently support SNMP for configuration. Settings and actual values are only available through the front panel and through EnerVista. The PRP solution to implement must ensure that performance requirements stated in IEC 61850-5 Clause 13 are still met. It is specified under Clause 13 (Message performance requirements) that messages of type 1A must meet the performance class P2/3, which is 3ms (See 3.7.1.1). B.1.2 HSR HSR defines a redundancy protocol for high availability in substation automation networks, based on PRP principles, provides the property of zero recovery time, typically used in ring topology but applicable to any topology. In the F650 relay, HSR is implemented in devices with comm unication option number K (for Fiber; 100 Base Fx) and M (for cooper; Base 100 Tx). A frame is sent over both ports. A destination should receive, in the fault-free state, two identical frames within a certain time skew, forward the first frame to the application and discard the second frame when (and if) it comes. A sequence number is used to recognize such duplicates. In contrast to PRP (IEC 62439-3- Clause 4), with which it shares the operating principle, HSR nodes are arranged into a ring, which allows the network to operate without dedicated switches , since every node is able to forward frames from port to port. HSR originally meant High-availability Seamless Ring, but HSR is not limited to a simple ring topology. Redundant connections to other HSR rings and to PRP networks are possible.

Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) (IEEE 802.1w) is an evolution of the Span ning Tree Protocol (STP) (802.1d standard) and provides for faster spanning tree convergence after a topology change. B.2.2 RSTP concepts The IEEE 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) was developed to allow the construc tion of robust networks that incorporate redundancy while pruning the active topology of the network to prevent loops. While STP is effective, it requires that frame transfer must halt after a link outage until all bridges in the network are sure to be aware of the new topology. Using STP (IEEE 802.1d) recommended values, this period lasts 30 seconds. The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1w) is a further evolution of the 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol. It replaces the settling period with an active handshake between switches (bridges) that guarantees topology inform ation to be rapidly propagated through the network. RSTP converges in less than one second. RSTP also offers a number of other significant innovations. These include: • Topology changes in STP must be passed to the root bridge before they can be propagated to the network. Topology changes in RSTP can be originated from and acted upon by any designated switch (bridge), leading to more rapid propagation of address information • STP recognizes one state - blocking for ports that should not for ward any data or information. RSTP explicitly recognizes two states or blocking roles - alternate and backup port including them in computations of when to learn and forward and when to block • STP relays conf iguration messages received on the root port g oing out of its designated ports. If an STP switch (bridge) fails to receive a message from its neighbor it cannot be su re where along the path to the root a failure occurred. RSTP switches (bridges) generate their own co nfiguration messages, even if they fail to receive one from the root bridge. This leads to quicker failure detection • RSTP offers edge port recognition, allowing ports at the edge of the network to forward frames immediately after acti vation while at the same time protecting them against loops • An improvement in RSTP allows conf iguration messages to age more quickly preventing them from “going around in circles” in the event of a loop RSTP has three states. They are discarding, learning and forwarding. The discarding state is entered when the port is first taken into service. The port does not learn addresses in this state and does not participate in frame transfer. The port looks for STP tra ffic in order to determine its role in the network. When it is determined that the port plays an active part in the network, the state changes to learning. The learning state is entered when the port is preparing to play an active member of the network. The port learns addresses in this state but does not participate in frame transfer. In a network of RSTP switches (bri dges) the time spent in this state is usually quite short. RSTP switches (bridges) operating in STP compatibility mode spend be tween 6 to 40 seconds in this state. After learning the bridge places the port in the forwarding state. While in this state the port both learn addresses and participates in frame transfer while in this state. The result of these enhanced states is that the IEEE 802.1d ve rsion of spanning tree (STP) can take a fairly long time to resolve all the possible paths and to select the most efficient path through the network. The IEEE 802.1w Rapid reconfiguration of Spanning Tree significantly reduces the amount of time it takes to establish the network path. The result is reduced network downtime and improv ed network robustness. In addition to faster network reconfiguration, RSTP also implements greater ranges for port path costs to accommodate the higher connection speeds that are being implemented. Proper implementations of RSTP (by switch vendors) is designed to be co mpatible with IEEE 802.1d STP. GE recommends that you employ RSTP or STP in your network.
APPENDIX B: B.2 RSTP (IEEE 802.1D-2004) AND DAISY CHAIN GEK-113000-AFF650 DIGITAL BAY CONTROLLER b-7 B.2.3 Use in meshed networks One great strength of RSTP is its support for all kinds of meshed topologies. The resulting flexibility regarding the installation is a clear advantage over th e stringent restrictions that are imposed by ring protocols such as MRP and ring installations. However, this flexibility harbors one great disadvantage, namely the reconfiguration time, which for an interconnected network depends – among other things – on the complexity of the network topology and the location in the network at which the failure occurred. Since RSTP is a dece ntralized protocol, it may also provoke highly unpredictable race conditions in the establishment of new communications paths, particularly when choosing a new root bridge. This gives rise to network reconfiguration times that can be estimate d only very roughly, and this does restrict the use of RSTP, particularly in meshed networks. In the case of meshed networks with very little complexity (such as ring networks with two or three additional loops or subrings), a detailed analysis can make it possible to determine upper limits, but these always need to be worked out individually. Unlike with the prot ocols MRP, HSR and PRP, it is not possible to make a general statement. B.2.4 Daisy chain A daisy chain is an interconnection of devices where each device is connected in series to the next. With an Ethernet daisy-chain redundancy selected, the F650 has two Ethernet ports and it is working as an Ethernet unmanaged switch. The two Ethernet ports are used for conne cting each device to the ports of its two neighboring devices. Each device in the daisy chain forwards the message until it reaches the destination. Ports A and B use the same MAC (physical device) address an d operate by chaining one device with the next one. Note that it is important not to create a loop in this topology. Both ends of the chain can be connected to different networks. The device operates only with one IP address through these 2 ports.
B-8F650 DIGITAL BAY CONTROLLER GEK-113000-AF B.3 LINK LOSS ALERT (LLA) APPENDIX B: B.3 Link loss alert (LLA) B.3.1 LLA (Link Loss Alert) operation: The operation of ports A and B are as follows: Ports A and B use port A’s MAC and IP address settings while port B is in standby mode in that it does not actively communicate on the Ethernet network but monitors its link. B.3.2 LLA priority If this setting is set to enabled, the port A has the priority. If PORTA’s LLA detects a problem with the link, communications is switched to Port B. Port B is, in effect, acting as a redundant or backup link to the network for port A. B.3.3 LLA timeout This setting is active only when the LLA PRIORITY is set to EN ABLED. When the link on primary port is detected again after it fails, there is LLA TIMEOUT (ms) monitoring time for the health of the network. During this time, the secondary port remains active. If primary network is healthy for more than LLA TOIMEOUT value, the switch over to primary port is automatic. If the setting LLA PRIORITY is enabled: • The primary port is port A while secondary (redundant) port is port B. • The primary port is always used if available. • If the link on primary port is lost switch over to secondary port occurs immediately. • When the link on primary port is detected again, there is a monitoring timeout (LLA TIMEOUT) for the health of the net work. After that period the communication switch over to primary port automatically. If the setting LLA PRIORITY is disabled: • There is no priority, therefore there is no primary port . The communication switch over from one Port to the other occurs when the link fails. • In this case the LLA TIMEOUT setting does not act .
