System Management Features
The system management features documented in this guide are described below:
DescriptionFeature
Configuration synchronization allows administrators
to make configuration changes on one switch and
have the system automatically synchronize the
configuration to a peer switch. This feature eliminates
misconfigurations and reduces the administrative
overhead.
The configuration synchronization mode
(config-sync) allows users to create switch profiles
to synchronize local and peer switch.
Switch Profiles
Module pre-provisioning feature allows users to
pre-configure interfaces before inserting or attaching
a module to a Cisco Nexus Series switch. If a module
goes offline, users can also use pre-provisioning to
make changes to the interface configurations for the
offline module. In some vPC topologies,
pre-provisioning is required for the configuration
synchronization feature. Pre-provisioning allows users
to synchronize the configuration for an interface that
is online with one peer but offline with another peer.
