Hello.
I've some questions about HSRP on Catalyst 3550.
I'm working with 2 Catalyst 3550-EMI (12.1(9)EA1c).
And I need to configure HSRP to ensure network redundancy.
I've made below configuration.
SW1#
interface FastEthernet0/1
no switchport
ip address 10.1.1.100 255.255.255.0
no ip redirects
standby 1 ip 10.1.1.2
standby 1 priority 200
standby 1 preempt
standby 1 track FastEthernet0/24 150
interface FastEthernet0/24
no switchport
ip address 192.168.1.100 255.255.255.0
no ip redirects
standby 2 ip 192.168.1.254
standby 2 priority 200
standby 2 preempt
SW2#
interface FastEthernet0/1
no switchport
ip address 10.1.1.200 255.255.255.0
no ip redirects
standby 1 ip 10.1.1.2
standby 1 priority 100
interface FastEthernet0/24
no switchport
ip address 192.168.1.200 255.255.255.0
no ip redirects
standby 2 ip 192.168.1.254
standby 2 priority 100
After configure completed.
The result of 'show standby' command is like below.
SW1#show standby
FastEthernet0/1 - Group 1

My purpose is the SW2 will take over all of the jobs processed by SW1
while I disconncet the cable on F0/24 at SW1.
But it doesn't work. After I disconnected the cable on F0/24@SW1.
The F0/24@SW1 will be standby. The F0/24@SW2 will be Active.
But the F0/1@SW1 still be Active! The standby track command seems not effected.
SW1#show standby

See? The priority of the F0/1@SW1 is decresed to 50.
And the priority of the F0/1@SW2 is still 100.
But the state of the F0/1@SW1 is still Active.
And the state of the F0/1@SW2 is still Standby.
Please give some suggestions.
Please forgive my poor English. Thank you very much.

You just have to add the word "preempt" on your standby configuration of F0/1 of your SW2:
standby 1 preempt
It allows the interface to be active when it has the highest priority.

There is an open caveat relating to "standby track" in the version of IOS you are using. Check BugID CSCdt48614. Suggest contacting TAC for assistance. Also, the version indicated by this BugID as having this resolved (12.1(11)EA1) also has problems, but may work for your circumstance.
