access asa in standby

[lkadlik]

Hi,

Is there a way to access the asa in a failover pair that is in standby mode from the primary asa?

IE I am logged into the primary asa via command line and was hoping to access the other asa from here.

Thank you.

You can apply commands and see its outputs, but you won't be logged into the other unit from the active one.

To do that, there is a command:

"Failover mate exec "

I.e

Failover mate exec show version

For this to work, the failover link should be up.

For Software Version 8.6(1)

The same command is different in CLI -

 failover exec mate
