Redundancy state is Displays the state of the redundancy group. When the redundancy feature is disabled, the state is “Disabled.” When enabled, it goes to “Startup” state. From “startup” it goes to “Discovery” state immediately if the STP convergence is not enabled. Otherwise, it remains in “Startup” state for a period of 50 seconds (the standard STP convergence time). During the discover state, the switch exchanges heartbeats and update messages to discover other members and determine the redundancy group authorization level. After discerning memberships, it moves to an Online state. There is no difference in state execution for the Primary and Standby modes of operation.
