Note |
We recommend to change the offset value of the conf-offset <offset_value> command (MACsec encryption command) in Cisco NCS 5500 fixed port routers only when the port is in admin down state (that is, when the interface is shut down). Changing the offset value otherwise may result in traffic loss. |
