Dual site Dual Maestro external Sync purpose

[puneet]

I want to know the purpose of Maestro dual site dual MHO external sync port. what configuration and info it will sync with site2 standby site ?

as per documentation it will only sync the MHO conf sync not the session table then how standby site SMO will get the session info (backup connection) via Hyper Sync?

The external sync ports are used for MHO configuration sync AND is used for connectivity between all SGM's, including connections sync.

it's a trunk port with VLANS for each connection:

on MHO-1 - 3951 (MHO Sync) ,3600(encapsulates SG Sync 3801-3808 VLANS)

on MHO-2 - 3952 (MHO Sync) ,3601(encapsulates SG Sync 3801-3808 VLANS)
