In the topology you just illustrated, you need to be specific about your scheme 
using arrows. Here are some examples:

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

Example 1: This is MultiMaster Replication among 4 servers

Master1----------->Master2
   ^                  |
   |                  |
   |                  |
   |                  V
Master4<-----------Master3

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

Example 2: This is Tree Replication among 4 servers

              Master1
                 |
     ____________|____________
    /            |            \
   |             |             |
   |             |             |
   V             V             V
Slave2        Slave3        Slave4

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

Example 3: This is Chained Replication among 4 servers

Master1--->Slave2--->Slave3--->Slave4

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

Example 4: This is MultiMaster Replication among 4 servers
Using two masters and two slaves

      ______________
     /              \
    V                \
Master1            Master2
  | \                ^ |
  |  \______________/  |
  |                    |
  |                    |
  V                    V
Slave3              Slave4

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

As long as you obey the rule: A SLAVE CANNOT HAVE TWO MASTERS,
there are many replication topologies that are possible

Subject: Question about Master-Master replication: Is this possible?

Hello together,

I have successfully set up a master-master-replication between two
servers. My question is: It is possible to set up such a replication
between three (or more) servers? Like this


Master3 --- Master1 --- Master2
               |
            Master4

Thanks for your feedback
Best regards

Frank
