Using Redundant Management Modules
December 2000 5 - 15
USING THE CLI
The CLI commands for automating synchronization of software between the active and standby modules is the
same as the syntax for immediately synchronizing the software. The only difference is the CLI level where you
enter the commands.
• To immediately synchronize software, enter the command at the Privileged EXEC level.
• To automate synchronization starting with the next software reload or system reset and each reload or reset
after that, enter the command at the Redundancy CONFIG level.
Automatic synchronization of the flash code, running-config, and system-config file is enabled by default.
Automatic synchronization of the boot code is disabled by default. To change the automatic synchronization
setting, use one of the following commands:
Syntax: [no] sync-standby boot
Syntax: [no] sync-standby code
Syntax: [no] sync-standby startup-config
Syntax: [no] sync-standby running-config [<num>]
To disable automatic synchronization of the boot code, flash code, or startup-config file, enter “no” in front of the
command.
The <num> parameter with the sync-standby running-config command specifies the synchronization interval.
You can specify from 4 – 20 seconds. The default is 10 seconds.
To disable automatic synchronization of the running-config, set the synchronization interval (the <num>
parameter) to 0.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
NOTE: This procedure applies only to synchronization of the boot code and running-config. To change
automatic synchronization of other software, use the CLI procedure above.
1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
dialog is displayed.
2. Select the Redundant
link to display the following panel.
3. To enable automatic synchronization of the boot code, select the checkbox next to Boot Flash.
4. To change the synchronization interval for the running-config, enter the new value in the Running
Configuration Interval field. To disable automatic synchronization of the running-config, enter 0 in the field.
5. Select the checkbox next to Boot Flash.
