Hello,
I have 2 seperate 4507R Switch running Sup VI-E, with the latest IOS on both of them. How do you configure HSRP on these 2 switches, to make the first switch ACTIVE and the other switch STANDBY. Can you please post a sample configuration for this scenario? Thank you.

You want to make the priority higher on the switch that you want as active. Let's use an example vlan 10 (10.1.1.0/24):
Switch-1 (ACTIVE)
int vlan 10
ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0
!-----SET UP HSRP VIP-------
standby 10 ip 10.1.1.1
!-----SET UP HSRP PRIORITY, DEFAULT IS 100 SO WE'LL GIVE ACTIVE 105-------
standby 10 priority 105
!-----IF HE GOES DOWN, WE WANT HIM TO TAKE OVER WHEN HE COMES BACK UP (PREEMPT)-----
standby 10 preempt
Switch-2 (STANDBY)
int vlan 10
ip address 10.1.1.3 255.255.255.0
!-----SET UP HSRP VIP-------
standby 10 ip 10.1.1.1
!-----THIS IS STANDBY, WE'LL LEAVE HSRP PRIORITY ALONE, DEFAULT IS 100 (NO CONFIG NECESSARY)-------
!-----IF ACTIVE GOES DOWN, WE WANT STANDBY TO TAKE OVER-----
standby 10 preempt

R1:
Interface vlan10
description primary vlan10 interface
ip address 10.100.10.2 255.255.255.0 <-- real ip
standby 10 ip 10.100.10.1 <-- default gateway provided to end-nodes
standby priority 105
standby preempt
no shut
!
( you can also use the "standby 10 track
R2:
Interface vlan10
description secondary vlan10 interface
ip address 10.100.10.3 255.255.255.0 <-- real ip
standby 10 ip 10.100.10.1 <-- default gateway provided to end-nodes
standby priority 100
standby preempt
no shut
!
Once these configurations are made, do a " show ip interface brief " on both routers. From here, you can check to see if each router is properly active/standby and what IP address they're both providing as the default gateway.
This also works for physical interfaces, but I hope you're using SVIs and trunking to L2 switches too.
