ASA 5520 Transparent Firewall Failover config

Level 1

Hello Pros,

Could any one give the config scripts for the ASA 5500 pair failover configuration in transparent mode.

I configured it as transparent but the failover task is left to do.

Please give the cmds for the failover for the transparent mode not for routed mode.

Thnaks
