Solved: Assuming you have a failover

Patrick McHenry · ‎03-12-2014

Hi,

I've configured firewall 1 by pasting in the config from the existing firewall that I will be replacing. Now I want to sync the config with firewall 2. What must I configure on Firewall 2 to make this happen when I attach the firewalls over the failover link?

Thank you, Pat.

Assuming you have a failover-capable license and are building an active-standby failover pair, you only need setup the failover interface on the secondary ASA and tell it it's in a pair with the global "failover" command.

Reference.

hi patrik,

marvin is right. assuming you're using active-standby failover, you'll just need to configure the failover interface on your firewall 2.
