Do you want to enable
enhanced operation mode
support [n] (y/n)?
Description: Specifies if you want to enable
enhanced operation mode. Enhanced
operation mode increases the maximum
number of VLANs when you use MultiLink
Trunking (MLT) (1980) and Split MLT (SMLT)
(989). This mode requires 8600 E- or
M-modules.
ATTENTION
If you enable enhanced operation mode and
you use a mixed configuration of modules,
you disable the Pre-E modules.
Action: Enter y to enable enhanced operation
mode. Accept the default (n), to not enable
enhanced operation mode.
Do you want to enable CPU
High Availability mode [n]
(y/n)?
Description: Specifies if you want to enable
CPU high availability (HA) mode. Use CPU
HA mode to recover switches with two CPUs
quickly from a failure of one of the CPUs. In
HA mode (hot standby), you synchronize and
configure the two CPUs in the same mode, so
they are compatible.

availability (HA) mode. Accept the default (n),
to not enable CPU HA mode.
