Please wait till the process is finished. The SPVs will be
synchronized after the reset is completed
Note: After the transfer is finished, the Supervisor Modules are reset automatically.
— After the reset the configuration files of the Active Supervisor Module will
be copied to the Standby Supervisor Module.
L This process can take up to two minutes.
Configuration File Synchronization
Three configuration files are stored in the Supervisor module flash memory:
• Layer 2 configuration (L2-config)
• Layer 3 running configuration (running-config)
• Layer 3 startup configuration (startup-config)
If SPVs are present, the configuration is automatically synchronized between the
Active and Standby Supervisor modules.
• Initial configuration synchronization takes place after the boot: this process can
take up to thirty seconds.
