Data Synching on the Switch Table

When a switch running FastIron 08.0.90 or later joins the controller, the controller runs the Local Sync operation every 5 minutes. If the changes are made on the switch console or any configuration changes are deployed on the controller, the controller syncs those corresponding changes to the switch or port table five minutes later, which causes a delay. Therefore, beginning with SmartZone 6.1.1, the Local Sync time is reduced from 5 minutes to 3 minutes to speed up the process.

When a CLI session is closed, Local Sync is triggered automatically to update the changes on the controller. Similarly, the controller can trigger Local Sync manually for a selected switch.
