Hi All
I have HA for my networks setup ( Active\Standby ) , when my primary ASA fails down or powered off automatically failover replication is happening and my secondary device carrying the traffic . whn i power on back my primary device its nt prempting to active and restoring back to active state,
let me know any commands to be added , else it have any defined time interval so that primary device ll prempt automatically to active state ,
else we do it manually by forcing failover active .
config of primary ASA
failover lan unit primary
failover lan interface failover Ethernet0/2
failover key *****
failover replication http

ASA Active/Standby failover does not support preemption.
Only ASA Active/Active failover or multicontext mode supports preempt when configured under failover group as follows:
