Hi all,

Example: Unit Failure

In this example, failover has detected a failure. Note that Interface 1 on the primary unit is the source of the failure. The units are back in "waiting" mode because of the failure. The failed unit has removed itself from the network (interfaces are down) and is no longer sending "hello" packets on the network. The active unit remains in a "waiting" state until the failed unit is replaced and failover communications starts again.
