Understanding
ACE

Redundancy


If

the

License

Compatibility

field

indicates

a

licensing

problem,

go

to

the

Licenses

page

of

ACE
Hardware
Setup

(see

the

“Using

ACE

Hardware

Setup”

section

on

page

3-5 )

and

make

sure

each
ACE
device

has

a

valid

license

installed.

Licenses

must

be

installed

on

each

device

separately
because
each

license

is

only

valid

for

one

hardware

device.
For
proper

HA

functionality,

the

licenses

on

both

ACEs

in

the

pair

must

be

also

compatible

with
each
other.

This

means

both

licenses

must

permit

the

same

bandwidth

and

the

same

number

of
virtual
contexts.
Note
If
the
licenses'
bandwidth

limits

do

not
match,
configuration
synchronization

may

appear

to
work
(although

Admin

context

synchronization

may

actually

not

be

functional),

and

the

License
Compatibility
field

may

not


show

an

er

ror.

However,

failover

from

the

higher

bandwidth

ACE
to
a

lower

bandwidth

ACE

could

result

in

l

oss

of

t

raffic.
