C9800 standby ssh access through RMI

Hi guys,

I configured C9800 sso today and I have 2 RMIs which are for active and standby,

I can ssh active one with its own RMI, but I cannot ssh standby one with its RMI. I already input the command 'standby enable console', but it doesn't seem like right command for ssh standby. Anyone know how can I ssh standby?

@yum3372

Did you run the command "redun-management interface" prior the HA config?

Monitoring the Health of Standby Controller Using CLI

This section describes the different commands that can be used to monitor the standby device.

You can connect to the standby controller through SSH using the RMI IP of the standby controller. The user credentials must have been configured already. Both local authentication and RADIUS authentication are supported.

Note

The redun-management command needs to be configured on both the controllers, primary and standby, prior to high availability (HA) pairing.

- Checkout the configuration of the (primary/active ) C9800 controller using : show tech wireless (not a simple 'show tech')
and feed the output from that into Wireless Config Analyzer

It was solved by adding tacacs-source interface command.
