Predefined Configuration Files

Overview

This chapter describes how to obtain and apply predefined configuration files provided by Schneider Electric. Use the files to configure ConneXium TCSESM-E extended managed switches to perform as dual-ring switches () on Quantum EIO main rings and sub rings.

DRS

(dual-ring switch) A ConneXium extended managed switch with one of several possible predefined configurations downloaded to it so that it can participate in an Ethernet I/O network. A DRS provides 2 RSTP-enabled ring connections, one for the main ring and one for a sub-ring. It also manages QoS, which provides a predictable level of performance for both remote I/O and distributed I/O traffic on the same I/O network.

DRSs require a firmware version 6.0 or later.
