Abstract: A method of interconnecting a daisy chain communication network having a terminal managers and a plurality of managed switches and a plurality of fixtures operable as clients of a client server network. The method also includes transmitting a discovery message to a first fixture and a second fixture, capturing the discovery message in the first fixture and the second fixture, and determining a first head fixture and at least one of a second head fixture and a tail fixture. Furthermore, the method also includes discovering an intermediate fixture based on the first head fixture and the at least one of a second head fixture and a tail fixture, resolving which of the first head fixture and the at least one of a second head fixture and a tail fixture is to be identified as an active head fixture, and establishing the active head fixture and a passive tail fixture.
