The spectrum management master / slave relationship
The Spectrum Management operates in a master / slave relationship. The master is
assumed to be the link master configured during installation. All Spectrum
Management configuration changes MUST be performed from the master. To enforce
this, the Spectrum Management web page has a different appearance depending if you
are viewing the data from the master or slave.
All configuration changes are applied at the master only. These changes are then
messaged from the master to the slave. Any Spectrum Management configuration
messages received at the slave are stored in non-volatile memory. This enables both
master and slave to keep identical copies of Spectrum Management configuration data
in their non-volatile memories. It is therefore possible to swap master and slave roles
on an active Point-to-Point link without modifying Spectrum Management
configuration.

similar. The width of the vertical green bar represents the channel width.
