configuration file, that is, when you use the display current-configuration or
display saved-configuration command to view the content of the configuration
file, the two commands are not displayed.
Precautions
Before configuring an XRN fabric, make sure that the software versions of each
switch are the same.
Make sure that the switches in a fabric are correctly interconnected through
the fabric ports.
Establishing an XRN system requires a high consistency of the configuration of
each device. Hence, before you enable the fabric port, do not perform any
configuration for the port, and do not configure some functions that affect the
XRN (such as HWTACACS and VLAN-VPN) for other ports or globally.
