Operational Technology (OT) environments can’t afford downtime — yet achieving true network redundancy often feels complex and confusing.
In this educational session, André Honningsvåg, OT Sales Specialist at Fortinet. And Harald Firing, systems engineer at Fortinet. breaks down the key redundancy protocols that keep industrial networks running: MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol), HSR (High-availability Seamless Redundancy), and PRP (Parallel Redundancy Protocol).
You’ll learn the fundamentals of how each protocol works, their advantages and limitations, and where they best fit — from ring topologies in factory floors to mission-critical dual networks in power and transport systems. The session blends theory with real-world examples to help engineers, integrators, and decision-makers design more resilient OT networks with confidence.
