Failover / HA

Ref

Failover / High Availability

! Designate this unit as the primary / secondary unit
asa(config)# failover lan unit { primary | secondary }

! failover link
asa(config)# failover lan interface folink <interface>
asa(config)# failover interface ip folink 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 standby 10.0.0.2
asa(config)# interface <interface>
asa(config-if)# no shutdown

! [Optional] Specify interface as state link
! failover link and state link can be shared
asa(config)# failover link folink <interface>
! if failover link and state link are separated, need to assign IP address
asa(config)# failover interface ip statelink 10.0.1.1 255.255.255.0 standby 10.0.1.2

! Enable failover
asa(config)# failover

Setup Interface Monitoring

asa(config)# [no] monitor-interface <interface>

Force failover

On active unit

asa# no failover active

Or, on standby unit

asa# failover active

Re-Sync the Config

On active unit

asa# write standby

Show failover state

asa# show failover
asa# show failover state

Debug failover failed

asa# show failover history
