redundant controller became the active controller.
Figure 21. Primary and redundant controllers after a failover

Configure a Single Controller With Redundancy

To enable 1:1 redundancy, configure the secondary IP address (that is, the IP address for the
redundant controller), the VRPP ID for the connection between the primary and the
redundant controller, and the local IP address for the primary controller. Both controllers
require matching licenses. If licenses do not match, redundancy cannot be established. For
additional requirements, see
page 291.
