Remote Management Card Configuration

Control Chain Auto-Negotiation

Two types of Remote Management Cards may be present in your network:

Remote Management Module (RMM) in R4300 chassis

Remote Management Card (RMC) in R4200 chassis

The RMC in Blade Switching (BSBP) and Direct Connect (DCBP) BackPacks is not
capable of auto-negotiation. A BCBP or DCBP with an RMC installed is always the
Primary in the Control Chain. RMCs can be installed only in BCBPs and DCBPs.
