Differences in Defining/Interpreting

Split Flows

Split flows are defined and/or interpreted according to the switch version and the management system involved. The following sections illustrate how split flow interpretation differs within the G1/G3 and G2 switch versions and according to two management systems, including R3 CMS and R2 CMS.

NOTE:

BCMS is not available on G2 (with or without vectoring).
