**Description:** The PFC200/300 series controllers currently lack Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) capabilities when functioning as a PROFINET master. MRP is essential for ensuring network reliability and minimizing downtime by allowing network devices to continue communication in the event of a ring network failure. Integrating MRP capabilities would enhance the resilience and operational efficiency of industrial networks, especially in environments where network availability is critical to continuous production and safety.

**Use Case:** This feature is particularly important in sectors such as automotive manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and food processing, where even a small amount of downtime can result in significant financial losses and safety risks.
