[AusNOG] Cisco 6500 redundant supervisor

[Beeson, Ayden]

Check Cisco bug notices etc. for your version, make sure you have pre-applied the redundancy configuration too so it'll boot up in the state you want it etc.

We did it for a while here on one of ours on a variety of 12.2 versions, worked fine 100% of the time for us, but I have heard that things can go wrong occasionally....

Thanks,
Ayden Beeson

Normally it doesn't, but a variety of factors means it could.

I've done it about 20 times... and 15 were fine, with the others being a variety of crashes.

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone with experience with running Cisco 6500s with redundant supervisors could tell me if introducing a 2nd supervisor will disrupt normal switch operation?

Thanks

Dylan.
