Abstract

A redundancy management method of a switched full-duplex Ethernet communication network includes at least two independent elementary networks each of which includes at least one source equipment and at least one destination equipment. The method includes a step for defining a window included within a predetermined interval corresponding to the frames already received at a given instant, a step for comparing the number of the frame received with the window, and a step for accepting the received frame when the frame number is not included in the window.
