Hi Guys,
I have run into a little snag here will laying out my system architecture on paper. I have two redundant sets of controllers that need to talk to each other over controlnet. There are no other nodes on this link...which is a PROBLEM. You need a minimum of 2 nodes per redundant chassis pair.

This is what I have:
PLC1-PRI -> PLC1-SEC -> PLC2-PRI -> PLC2-SEC
What do u put in between for controlnet nodes? Does Rockwell have some sort of Dummy Node to handle this type of situation?
