Hi,
My question is that I have a pair of FWSM that resides on a 6509 and when the primary went down the secondary was active.
When the primary came up, the secondary was still the active FW.
Here is the config for the primary and secondary part on the FWSM (IPs changed) :-
failover
failover lan unit primary
failover lan interface Failover Vlan74
failover link State Vlan75
failover interface ip Failover 10.4.10.67 255.255.255.248 standby 10.4.10.68
failover interface ip State 10.4.7.74 255.255.255.248 standby 10.4.7.75
!

failover

failover link State Vlan75
failover interface ip Failover 10.4.10.67 255.255.255.248 standby 10.4.10.68
failover interface ip State 10.4.7.74 255.255.255.248 standby 10.4.7.75

Is there a way to make the primary active when it comes back up ? Ie) Similar to using the 'preempt' command for HSRP.
Please advice,
Cheers,

Sanjay,
The 'failover preempt' command might help you here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/fwsm/fwsm40/command/reference/ef.html#wp1667787
It is only available in 3.2.x, 4.0.x. and 4.1.x.
