Chapter 3 CLI Commands
(config-if) standby
Member interfaces: none
Active interface: Gigabit Ethernet 1/0
Maximum errors allowed on the active interface: 500
Note To display information about a specific standby group configuration, enter the show interface
standby group_number EXEC command.
The following example creates a standby group, Standby Group 1:
WAE# configure
WAE(config)# interface standby 1
WAE(config-if)#
The following example assigns a group IP address of 10.10.10.10 and a netmask of 255.0.0.0 to Standby
Group 1. You can configure a group IP address regardless of whether the standby group is shut down or
not.
WAE(config-if)# ip address 10.10.10.10 255.0.0.0
WAE(config-if)# errors 500
The following example shows how to add two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to Standby Group 1 and then
assign each of these member interfaces a priority within the group:
a. First a Gigabit Ethernet interface (slot 1/port 0) is added to Standby Group 1 and assigned a priority
of 150.
WAE(config)# interface gigabitEthernet 1/0
WAE(config-if)# standby 1 priority 150
b. Next, a second Gigabit Ethernet interface (slot 2/port 0) is added to Standby Group 1 and assigned
a priority of 100 (the default value).
WAE(config)# interface gigabitEthernet 2/0
WAE(config-if)# standby 1
WAE(config-if)# exit
WAE(config)#
Because GigabitEthernet 0/0 is assigned the highest priority (a priority number of 150) of all the member
interfaces in the group, it is chosen as the active interface for the group if it can be brought up.
The following example removes the GigabitEthernet slot 1/port 0 interface from Standby Group 1 using
the no form of the standby command:
WAE(config)# interface gigabitEthernet 1/0
WAE(config-if)# no standby 1
WAE(config-if)# exit
WAE(config)#
The following example shows how to shut down Standby Group 1. When a standby group is shut down,
all of the alarms previously raised by this standby group are cleared:
WAE(config)# interface standby 1
WAE(config-if)# exit
WAE(config)# exit
The following example shows how to tear down Standby Group 1:
WAE(config)# interface standby 1
WAE(config-if)# no ip address 10.10.10.10 255.0.0.0
Please remove member interface(s) from this standby group first.
WAE(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 2/0
WAE(config-if)# no standby 1
