PIX failover license

kbelian

Hi,

I have a situation with 2 PIX 525 running PIX OS 6.3(3) int Active/standby mode. The Primary has UR license, while the secondary FO license.

The Primary is failing and the failover has taken over. I have 2 questions:

- How can the license be moved to another PIX?

- Does really the FO reboot itself every 24 hours?

I can't find any relevant info on CCO concerning these issues. Any help will be appreciated. thnx

So long a the FO unit had seen the Primary/active unit with the UR license when it first came up, it will not reboot every 24 hours.

Do not worry. There is no need to transfer the license.

Just have the defective unit replaced.

Pls. refer this link:
