Chapter 9 Configuring Cisco NSF with SSO Supervisor Engine Redundancy
Configuring NSF with SSO Supervisor Engine Redundancy
All OSPF networking devices on the same network segment must be NSF-aware (running an NSF
software image).
For IETF IS-IS, all neighboring devices must be running an NSF-aware software image.

Configuring SSO

You must configure SSO in order to use NSF with any supported protocol.
To configure SSO, perform this task:
Note The sso keyword is supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)EWA and later releases.
This example shows how to configure the system for SSO and display the redundancy state:
Switch> enable
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# redundancy
Command Purpose
Step 1 Switch(config)# redundancy Enters redundancy configuration mode.
Step 2 Switch(config-red)# mode sso Configures SSO. When this command is entered, the
redundant supervisor engine is reloaded and begins to
work in SSO mode.
Step 3 Switch(config-red)# end Returns to EXEC mode.
Step 4 Switch# show running-config Verifies that SSO is enabled.
Step 5 Switch# show redundancy states Displays the operating redundancy mode.
