In a Maestro Dual Site environment, the Standby Site is defined as the site that is not currently handling traffic for a specific Security Group (SG). Instead, it maintains synchronized connections with its Security Group Members (SGMs) via the Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrators (MHOs), ensuring it is ready to take over in the event of a failover. This setup enhances high availability and disaster recovery.

Exact Extract:

Maestro allows you to define the distribution mode per interface, which determines how traffic is distributed among the Security Group Modules (SGMs) in a Security Group. You can configure the distribution mode for each interface individually, or use the default mode for all interfaces. The distribution mode can be set for both uplink and downlink interfaces.
