Active/Standby Failover Config change

[mahesh18]

Hi everyone,

This weekend we are doing some change on ASA in Active/Standby mode.

We will power off standby ASA.

Do some changes on Active ASA  save the changes  and reboot it.

Power up the Active ASA and will test  the connectivity if it is working  or not .

In case Active ASA is not working as expected after the change i will power it off.

Power up Standby ASA  then it will become active as expected.

Now if i Power up other ASA where changes were made will  it synchnorize to old config from Standby  ASA or  not?

Last week we did some changes on Active ASA and it did not work as expected so we have to undo our change.

Need to make sure our backup plan is working?

Regards

Mahesh

In your fall back scenario you would have to tell what was the secondary ASA that it is now the primary

change

failover lan unit secondary

to

failover lan unit primary

and vice-versa on the now primary ASA.

change

failover lan unit primary

to

failover lan unit secondary

Hope it helps
