ASA failover down

haytham elsamadony — Sun, 09 Aug 2020 01:18:03 GMT

Hi guys

I have 2 ASA firewalls active/standby version 9.8(2)

by ASDM I change the security level of the interface from 100 to 0

then I found this message in below photo

I didn`t read the message I want to finish this task quickly so I press on "force send"

after that, the failover is down, any configure do at the active don`t apply at the standby one

and at sh run, i find this

failover
failover lan unit primary
failover lan interface LANFAIL Port-channel1
failover key *****
failover link LANFAIL Port-channel1
failover interface ip LANFAIL 10.10.1.1 255.255.255.0 standby 10.10.1.2

at bot active and standby

So, this means that failover is gone and I must configure it from the beginning

and what the required configuration for that

and if make this, I will need to reset the ASA to activate this configuration?

Please any response ASAP

Thanks

The message in your ASDM indicates that you made changes on the standby device (which will not be sent to the active device.)

Could you issue the commands show failover and show failover history.

Also which interface did you change the security level on?
