An industrial RedBox can provide all four listed interconnection modes. In HSR-SAN mode, it connects a singly attached node that does not natively support High-availability Seamless Redundancy to an HSR network. The RedBox duplicates frames entering the HSR domain and removes duplicate frames before delivering traffic to the SAN.

HSR-PRP mode interconnects an HSR ring with a Parallel Redundancy Protocol network while preserving seamless redundancy. PRP-PRP mode couples two PRP network domains, while HSR-HSR mode connects separate HSR rings. Depending on the implementation, the HSR-HSR interconnection function may also be described as a QuadBox function because four HSR-facing ports can be involved.

The essential RedBox responsibilities are frame conversion, duplication, duplicate elimination, sequence-number handling, and prevention of unintended forwarding loops between redundancy domains. HSR and PRP use compatible duplicate-identification principles, enabling controlled interconnection between these network types without introducing a single point of failure. RedBoxes also provide redundant connectivity for devices that have only one ordinary Ethernet interface.

GRE is a multiprotocol encapsulation mechanism and can carry all the listed packet types. It inserts a GRE header around the original payload and then places the resulting GRE packet inside a delivery-protocol packet. Because the GRE header contains a Protocol Type field identifying the encapsulated payload, GRE is not restricted to ordinary IPv4 unicast traffic.

IPv6 packets can be transported as GRE payloads when supported by the tunnel endpoints. IP unicast traffic is the most common use case. GRE can also carry IP multicast and broadcast packets, which is one of its major advantages over basic IPsec tunnel selectors that traditionally focus on IP unicast traffic. This enables routing protocols, multicast applications, discovery traffic, and other non-unicast services to operate across a logical point-to-point tunnel.

RFC 2784 defines GRE as a general mechanism for encapsulating an arbitrary network-layer protocol over another network-layer protocol. It also defines the Protocol Type field used to identify the carried payload. Huawei uses GRE as an SD-WAN overlay data-channel option and can additionally secure it using IPsec when confidentiality and integrity are required.

==================

All four options are recognized terminal identification methods. MAC OUI examines the first three bytes of a device’s MAC address to determine its manufacturer, although it generally cannot identify the exact model or operating system. DHCP option identification analyzes fields such as DHCP options 12, 55, and 60, which can reveal the hostname, parameter-request list, vendor class, and other terminal characteristics. SNMP query is an active identification method that retrieves device details from relevant MIB objects and is particularly useful for printers, network devices, and other SNMP-capable equipment.

Nmap is also an active scanning method. It analyzes open ports, service responses, protocol behavior, and operating-system fingerprints to estimate a terminal’s device type and OS. Huawei distinguishes information-reporting methods from proactive scanning methods: MAC OUI and DHCP options generally use information observed in traffic, whereas SNMP and Nmap actively query or scan the endpoint. iMaster NCE-Campus can correlate multiple fingerprints to improve identification accuracy and automatically apply terminal-specific access policies.
