Hi Horatiu

The structures above should give me enough information to build this,
correct?

Ethernet II, Src: 7a:8b:b1:35:96:e1 (7a:8b:b1:35:96:e1), Dst: Iec_00:00:01 (01:15:4e:00:00:01)
    Destination: Iec_00:00:01 (01:15:4e:00:00:01)
    Source: 7a:8b:b1:35:96:e1 (7a:8b:b1:35:96:e1)
    Type: MRP (0x88e3)
PROFINET MRP MRP_Test, MRP_Common, MRP_End
    MRP_Version: 1
    MRP_TLVHeader.Type: MRP_Test (0x02)
        MRP_TLVHeader.Type: MRP_Test (0x02)
        MRP_TLVHeader.Length: 18
        MRP_Prio: 0x1f40 High priorities
        MRP_SA: 7a:8b:b1:35:96:e1 (7a:8b:b1:35:96:e1)
        MRP_PortRole: Primary ring port (0x0000)
        MRP_RingState: Ring closed (0x0001)
        MRP_Transition: 0x0001
        MRP_TimeStamp [ms]: 0x000cf574             <---------- Updated automatic
    MRP_TLVHeader.Type: MRP_Common (0x01)
        MRP_TLVHeader.Type: MRP_Common (0x01)
        MRP_TLVHeader.Length: 18
        MRP_SequenceID: 0x00e9                     <---------- Updated automatic
        MRP_DomainUUID: ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff
    MRP_TLVHeader.Type: MRP_End (0x00)
        MRP_TLVHeader.Type: MRP_End (0x00)
        MRP_TLVHeader.Length: 0

There are a couple of fields i don't see. MRP_SA, MRP_Transition.

What are max and ring_nr used for?

Do you need to set the first value MRP_SequenceID uses? Often, in
order to detect a reset, a random value is used to initialise the
sequence number. Also, does the time stamp need initializing?

Thanks
