Chapter 10. Replacing a Remote Front End

This function is only available on older FEP-4600 platforms and is not supported for new
installations.

Remote front end replacements (one that normally requires remote loading and does not
have a directly attached host) by the FEP-4600 are handled by replacing both the local
front end and the remote front end with a pair of FEP-4600s clustered together. Through
the clustered platforms, connections that were previously handled by the remote front end
will appear much the same as a local connection from a FEP-4600. Refer to the diagrams
below.
