High Availability Table
The HA Peer Information table lists the details of the HA peer, if configured in HA mode. It includes
the following information:
• HA/FT Interface State—State of the local ACE. See the “High Availability Polling” section on
page 11-2.
• My IP Address—IP address of the local ACE.
• Peer IP Address—IP address of the peer ACE.
• Software Compatibility—Status of whether the software version of the local ACE and the software
version of the peer ACE are compatible. Possible states are the INIT, COMPATIBLE, or
INCOMPATIBLE state.
• License Compatibility—Status of whether the license of the local ACE and the license of the peer
ACE are compatible. Possible states are the INIT, COMPATIBLE, or INCOMPATIBLE state.
• Number of FT Groups—Number of configured FT groups.
• Number of Heartbeats Transmitted—Total number of heartbeat packets transmitted.
• Number of Heartbeats Received—Total number of heartbeat packets received.
This data is collected during periodic monitoring polling. The timestamp shown in the status bar is from
the last polled time of the Admin virtual context.
Device Configuration Summary Table
The Device Configuration Summary table displays the following information:
• Virtual Servers—Total count of virtual servers configured in all contexts and the count of virtual
servers that are in the In Service or Out of Service state. DM also identifies virtual servers that have
a Status Not Available state (due to polled failing, polled disable, and so on) and have a Status Not
Supported state (due to a lack of SNMP support on the ACE appliance). A hyperlink enables you to
view load balancing virtual server monitoring information based on the identified state (see the
“Monitoring Load Balancing on Virtual Servers” section on page 14-23). For example, if you click
the In Service hyperlink, you will see only the virtual servers that are currently in service.
• Real Servers—Total count of real servers configured in all contexts and the count of real servers that
are in In Service and Out of Service. A hyperlink enables you to view load balancing real server
monitoring information based on the identified state (see the “Monitoring Load Balancing on Real
Servers” section on page 14-25). For example, if you click the In Service hyperlink, you will see
only the real servers that are currently in service.
• Probes—Total count of probes configured in all contexts and the count of probes that are in the In
Service and Out of Service state. A hyperlink enables you to view load balancing probe monitoring
information based on the identified state (see the “Monitoring Load Balancing on Probes” section
on page 14-27). For example, if you click the In Service hyperlink, you will see only the probes that
are currently in service.
• Gigabit Ethernets—Total count of Gigabit Ethernet physical interfaces configured on the ACE
appliance based on their operational status of Up and Down. A hyperlink enables you to view traffic
summary information based on the identified state (see the “Monitoring Traffic” section on
page 14-21). For example, if you click the Up hyperlink, you will see only the Gigabit Ethernet
physical interfaces that currently have an operational status of Up.
