Very simple. Once the real consumer connects to the master and replicates, it 
will acquire whatever config was on the master. If the master doesn't have a 
consumer pointed at itself, then once the consumer acquires the master's 
configuration, the consumer's syncrepl config will disappear, and replication 
will stop.
