Hello.

Therefore, I inserted settings standby console enable, and save.

but when switch is reloaded, the settings disappear.

Hello,

 

how did you configure this, like below ?

 

6500(config)#redundancy

6500(config-red)#main-cpu

6500(config-r-mc)#standby console enable

Hello GaeMi,

in a catalyst with two supervisors even using SSO the standby supervisor console cannot be accessed by default.

 

Try the procedure described in the following thread to see if you can enable it.

see

https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/console-session-disabled-on-standby-supe-4507/td-p/1990850

 

Switch#conf t

Switch(config)#redundancy

Switch(config-red)#main-cpu

Switch(config-r-mo)#standby console enable

 

However, to be noted in a different platform like ASR9000 with two Route Processors running IOS XR both console are available and can be used at the same time by default. I did it.

 

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Thank you!
I already inserted this commands in the switch.
but, when switch was rebooted, not applied.

I have tried and rebooted several times, It was applied from a certain moment.
I don't know detail reasons... Anyway, things went well.
