Introduction

Customers with a CS 1000M installed base can re-configure existing
satellite Small System to function as Branch Offices. This configuration
allows customers to incorporate systems that were previously stand-alone
into a Branch Office network.

Where no main office exists, one office can be configured as the main office,
and the others converted to branch offices. Alternatively, if a main office
already exists, each of the other offices can be converted to a Branch Office
and associated with that main office. Therefore, customers with a number
of Small Systems can obtain the advantages of the Branch Office feature
without replacing their existing hardware.

Once a Small System has been converted to a Branch Office, it cannot
revert directly back to a stand-alone system.

Requirements

Any system can be configured as a main office, as listed in

"Main office

hardware description" (page 28)
