Configuring Router Redundancy
This chapter describes how to configure router redundancy. It assumes you have
read Configuring Routers and Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 of this guide, and that you
have already created a local configuration file for a router without router
redundancy.
To enable router redundancy, you must choose at least two routers as members of
a router redundancy group. One of the routers will be the primary router; it will
provide normal routing/bridging services. The other router will be the secondary,
backup router; it will take over if the primary router fails. All members of a router
redundancy group must have exactly the same configuration for all backed-up
interfaces, except for the router’s Member ID, Priority, and resources.
When you enable router redundancy, you must configure some group and member
parameters. The Configuration Manager supplies default values for the remaining
parameters. Use the directions that follow to enable router redundancy and edit
router redundancy parameters.
For each parameter, this chapter provides information about default settings, valid
parameter options, the parameter function, instructions for setting the parameter,
and the MIB object ID.
Note: You cannot configure router redundancy in dynamic or remote mode.
