topic Question on PIX failover... in Network Security https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/question-on-pix-failover/m-p/217662#M563343 <P>I am new to managing a particular network where I work and I discovered that the secondary PIX does not have a config when I do a "show conf". The primary PIX is active and I see the config on it. I want to copy the active config over to the secondary PIX, but I do not want "failover" to take place. I keep getting this console message stating that "failover cable connected but failover not enabled" or something similar to that. How can I set up failover and copy the config over, but not have the primary PIX actually failover ? Thanks for any help.</P><P></P><P>Tom</P> Fri, 21 Feb 2020 07:32:55 GMT rowleyt1 2020-02-21T07:32:55Z Question on PIX failover... https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/question-on-pix-failover/m-p/217662#M563343 <P>I am new to managing a particular network where I work and I discovered that the secondary PIX does not have a config when I do a "show conf".
