> # Replication (Consumer) Configuration

> The status line tells you that this consumer replica is ready to receive updates from a supplier. Note that a supplier may be either a hub or a master replica.

> Change. Click this button to change the status of your replica. The following changes are available:

> - Promote-Demote Replica. Choose this menu item to promote your suffix from a consumer to a hub replica using the replication wizard. You must promote a consumer to a hub before being able to promote it further to a master replica.

> - Enable or Disable 4.x Compatibility. Choose this menu item to allow or disallow this suffix to receive updates from a Directory Server version 4.x supplier. When enabled for the first time, you will be prompted to enter a bind DN and password that the 4.x supplier must use to replicate to this suffix. Otherwise, 4.x compatibility will be enabled or disabled for this replica without confirmation. The status line will tell you when 4.x compatibility is enabled.

> - Disable Replication. Choose this menu item to stop receiving replicated data in this suffix after the confirmation dialog.

> Advanced. Click this button to configure advanced replication settings for your consumer replica, such as defining additional replication manager DNs and alternate referrals.
