NOTE
VCT is not supported on SX-FI48GPP, SX-FI-24GPP, SX-FI-24HF, SX-FI-2XG, and SX-FI-8XG.
The procedures in this chapter describe how to configure the software to monitor hardware
components.
Traffic Limitations in Mixed Environments
Packet loss can occur in environments that mix SX hardware modules of different generations.
The following table lists the modules by generation:
