XR7 Redundancy Supervision is a highly specialized software suite developed to manage and monitor HSR and PRP supervision protocols. Compliant with IEC 62439-3:2016 standards, it functions by generating and processing crucial supervision frames within a network, ensuring nodes are continuously aware of the network topology and operational status.
This C-language based implementation is designed for ease of integration into Linux environments, offering an abstraction layer for simplified portability across different systems. It actively maintains a NodesTable to store information about other nodes, which can be leveraged by network management systems for enhanced monitoring and management.
The suite supports both standard and customizable transmission intervals, with built-in interfaces for reading nodal data. These capabilities make XR7 an essential tool in environments where stringent supervision and timely network information processing are mission-critical, such as in automated industrial systems and large-scale data networks.
