Separating Clustered Devices

Supported Devices:
Series 3
When you break device clustering, the active device or stack retains full deployment functionality. The
backup device or stack loses its interface configurations and fails over to the active device or stack,
unless you choose to leave the interface configurations active, in which case the backup device or stack
resumes normal operation. Breaking a cluster always removes the configuration of passive interfaces on
the backup devices. Any devices in maintenance mode resume normal operation upon breaking the
cluster.

You can increase the amount of traffic inspected on a network segment by using devices in a stacked
configuration. For each stacked configuration, all devices in the stack must have the same hardware.
However, if the stack does not contain a 3D9900, none, some, or all devices might have an installed
malware storage pack. The devices must also be from the same device family based on the following
