ASA Failover

[zekebashi]

Hello,

I am planning on configuring a pair of ASAs with FO(Failover) and wanted to find out if the pair will appear as one device.  Meaning will I be able to manage the two devices by SSH'ng into each one of them or I will only be able to SSH into the primary? 

Thanks!

When you configure a pair of ASA for failover each ASA has a separate address. One address is configured for the active member and another address is configured for the standby member. (when a failover event occurs the standby ASA becomes active and assumes the active address) This should allow you to SSH to each of the ASA pair.
