Flexible Inline Arrangements—Rules and Notes

Keep in mind the following when working with flexible inline arrangement:

■

If an inline tool is associated with a flexible inline map, it cannot be used in a classic inline map or in an inline decryption map. All inline networks and inline tools must participate exclusively in either flexible inline maps or classic inline maps.

■

You cannot create multiple unidirectional collector maps for the same inline network using the flexible inline canvas. For example, consider that you want to have different VLANs in each direction on the collector map, then you must create additional unidirectional flexible inline maps and associate unique VLAN tags (or it is automatically assigned by GigaVUE-FM).

■

You can configure Flexible inline solution in GigaVUE-TA200 nodes only if the inline components are in local node. Cross-box port configuration is not allowed. GigaVUE-TA200 configured with Flexible inline solution can be part of a cluster but only as a member node or non-standby node. The following functionalities are not supported in GigaVUE TA200 such as:

o

Physical Bypass Functionality is not supported due to the absence of BPS card.

o

Flex Inline SSL functionality is not supported due to the absence of GigaSMART card.

o

GRIP functionality is not supported due to the absence of BPS card.

o

Inline Bypass Solution (Classic)
