You can configure interfaces on individual devices in a 7000 or 8000 Series device high-availability pair.
However, you must also configure an equivalent interface on the peer device in the pair. For paired stacks,
you configure identical interfaces on the primary devices of the stacks. When you configure virtual routers,
you select the stack where you want to configure the routers.
Procedure
Step 1
Choose
Devices
>
Device Management
.
Step 2
Next to the device high-availability pair where you want to configure interfaces, click the edit icon (
).
In a multidomain deployment, if you are not in a leaf domain, the system prompts you to switch.
Step 3
Click the
Interfaces
tab.
Step 4
From the
Selected Device
drop-down list, choose the device you want to modify.
Step 5
Configure interfaces as you would on an individual device.
