MSFC Configuration Synchronization Overview
MSFC high availability allows for automatic synchronization of the startup configuration and running
configuration between the designated MSFC (the MSFC to come online first, or the MSFC that has been
online the longest) and the nondesignated MSFC. High-availability redundancy is disabled by default.
Caution
Configuration synchronization is only supported for IP and IPX configurations. Before enabling
synchronization, you must ensure that both MSFCs have identical configurations for all protocols. If
you are using AppleTalk, DECnet, VINES or any other routing, you must manually ensure that
identical configurations are on both MSFCs for all protocols.
To determine the status of the designated MSFC, enter the
show fm features
or the
show redundancy
command:
Router-15#
show redundancy
Designated Router: 1 Non-designated Router:2
Redundancy Status: non-designated
Config Sync AdminStatus : enabled
Config Sync RuntimeStatus: enabled
Router-16#
show redundancy
Designated Router: 1 Non-designated Router:2
Redundancy Status: designated
Config Sync AdminStatus : enabled
Config sync RuntimeStatus: enabled
High-availability redundancy provides startup and running configuration synchronization.
When you enable high-availability redundancy, the startup configuration of both MSFCs is updated
when you enter either of these commands on the designated MSFC:
•
write mem
•
copy
source
startup-config
