PIX 515E Stateful Failover

[swilson]

Hi All,

I have tried to configure 2 PIX 515E (with UR / FO boxes) with Stateful Failover, but experiencing some problems. Here are my doubts:-

1. What is the exact commandline which distinguishes between the Stateful / Non-Stateful Failover?

2.In Stateful FO mode, if I power off the Active PIX, how much time it will take for the Standby to become Active?

Any hint will be of great help.

Kind Regards,

Wilson Samuel

If you want to configure Stateful Failover, add the "failover link" command and specify the interface the Stateful Failover will be using. For Stateful Failover, you must have a dedicated 100baseTx Stateful Failover interface in addition to all other interfaces.
