25.1.2.3 Step 3: Initialize HA on the Devices
Once you have configured both devices for HA as described in the previous sections,
follow the procedure below to complete and initialize HA so that the devices become
operational in HA. This last stage applies to both devices.
To initialize the devices for HA:
1. Cable the devices to the network.
Note:
You must connect both ports (two) in the Ethernet Port Group of the
Maintenance interface to the network (i.e., two network cables are used). This
provides 1+1 Maintenance port redundancy.
2. Power up the devices; the redundant device synchronizes with the active device and
updates its configuration according to the active device. The synchronization status is
indicated as follows:
• Active device: The Web interface's Home page displays the HA status as
"Synchronizing".
• Redundant device: The LED is lit yellow on the E-SBC module.
When synchronization completes successfully, the redundant device resets to apply
the received configuration and software.
When both devices become operational in HA, the HA status is indicated as follows:
• Both devices: The Web interface's Home page displays the HA status as
"Operational".
• Active device: The LED is lit green
• Redundant device: The LED flashes yellow
3. Access the active device with its OAMP IP address and configure the device as
required. For information on configuration done after HA is operational, see
''Configuration while HA is Operational'' on page 413.
