Abstract
An interface receives a command corresponding to a non-volatile memory. The interface determines whether a bypass mode is enabled and whether the command is a medium-access command. A primary processing node processes the command in response to determining at least one of the following: that the bypass mode is disabled or that the command is not a medium-access command. A secondary processing node processes the command, in response to determining that the bypass mode is enabled and that the command is a medium-access command.
