Disabled by default. 

 

  Caution: 

z

 

The SMB does not support any system configuration commands. Therefore, users 

cannot execute any commands in the SMB unless it has replaced the original AMB 

and has become the new AMB. 

z

 

After the SMB has restarted, the AMB will perform initial synchronization on the 

SMB. During this process if the user presses <Enter>, the system will prompt the 

user no command can be input. After the initial synchronization is completed, the 

user can execute all the configuration commands in the AMB and the AMB and SMB 

will keep a real-time synchronization process, meaning the configuration of the user 

on the AMB will be copied to the SMB to ensure the consistency of the current 

configuration of the AMB and SMB. 

z

 

A switchover capable device cannot be updated with a software specific with 

centralized device as this will result in an unavailable system. 

z

 

If only one SRPU is in the slot, the Full Mesh enhance mode does not take effect. 

z

 

The S9505 switch does not support the

 fullmesh-enhance

 command. 

z

 

When the system works in load balancing mode, it activates the Full Mesh enhance 

mode if this mode is configured. 

z

 

When the system works in active and standby mode, it does not activate the Full 

Mesh enhance mode if this mode is configured. In this case, you need to switch the 

system to the load balancing mode to activate the Full Mesh enhance mode.
