Chapter 7
Consolidating Multi-SMC/AS
Configurations to One SMC
You can consolidate a multi-AS configuration with each AS controlled by a
separate SMC to one controlled by a single SMC. Sections in the chapter are
shown as callout items in the box in Figure 7–1. Note that this procedure
involves more than just cabling, unlike the other chapters in Part 1.
