Feature Description Reference
Configuration Archive Auto-revert The Configuration Archive Auto-revert feature provides the capability to revert or rollback to a previous configuration if the changed running configuration is not saved to the non-volatile memory within a pre-defined time. This prevents the system from entering an unknown state by reminding the system administrator that the running configuration has changed and these configurations have not been saved. If the write memory command is not used after the reminder is issued, the system can reload automatically using the golden archive that has been previously configured.

Refer to Overview of Breakout Ports for more information.
Remote Access The management access command has been introduced for remote access to ICX devices. ACLs are no longer used in conjunction with management access protocols. Refer to Remote Access to the Switch for more information.
