HSRP / Failover on CSS1100 Load balancer

[bapatsubodh]

Hi,

We have two css 11500 series , we need to configure in HSRP mode. So that if one fails second will automatically take over. Like PIX is it required to be configured like active and failover mode with stateful or stateless mode of failover. Do we need seperate licenses for such configuration similar to PIX.

( In our case VIP adress and server IP address are on the same Subnet , source and Dest NAT is done using server groups in CSS).

Any link on cisco.com or working example configuration guidelines are highly appreciable.

Thanx in advance

Subodh
