With the DANZ Monitoring Fabric (DMF) 8.7 release, DMF Controller support for modular chassis switches has been improved by adding platform compatibility for DCS-7289-CH switches. DMF Controller and switch sync-up have also been improved to maintain state consistency.

In DANZ Monitoring Fabric (DMF) 8.6, the Controller supports modular chassis switches. A chassis can have one or more line cards. On the Controller side, a chassis switch with multiple line cards, each with its own ASIC, will be treated as a single switch. When connected, the chassis should work like any regular switch and requires no user intervention for this support to work. The Controller will automatically pick up the chassis, initiate a handshake, and react to any chassis events like line cards added or removed.
