CAUTION:
■ A Smart Link/Monitor Link group with members cannot be deleted. A Smart
Link group as a Monitor Link group member cannot be deleted.
■ The Smart Link/Monitor Link function and the remote port mirroring function
are incompatible with each other.
■ If a single port is specified as a Smart Link/Monitor Link group member, do not
use the lacp enable command on the port or add the port to another dynamic
link aggregation group because doing so will cause the port to become an
aggregation group member.
■ Using the copy command on a port does not copy the Smart Link/Monitor Link
group member information configured on the port to any other port.
