Adding a Switch to a Switch Profile
• The committed switch profile is synchronized with the newly added peers (when they are online) if the
peer switch is also configured with configuration synchronization.
If you want to import a member interface to a switch profile, the port channel including the member
interface must also be present within the switch profile.
Before You Begin
After creating a switch profile on the local switch, you must add the second switch that will be included in
the synchronization.
