Yeap.. we using "local" fiber which connects both 6500 series at different locations.

By the way, I had performed sync between these enforcement by rebooting all of it in one go. I noticed during bootup, it able to sync with other enforcements but when I checked with cphoprob state command. Every enforcements seeing each other as down state. I have no idea about this already. I'm almost managed to get these works. Kindly advice.

Thanks.
