Field Descriptions for the show ft group Command Output
Field
Description
FT Group
FT group identifier.
No. of Contexts
Number of contexts associated with the FT group.
Context Name
Name of the context associated with the FT group.
Context ID
Identifier of the context associated with the FT group.
Configured Status
Configured state of the FT group. Possible states are the in-service or out-of-service states.
Maintenance Mode
Current maintenance mode of the local context in an FT group. Applications can turn on
maintenance mode when there is an i n ability to communicate with the peer, license mismatches, too
many application errors, and so on. Possible states are:
My State
State of the FT group member in the local ACE. Possible states are:
FSM_FT_STATE_STANDBY_BULK—Local standby context is waiting to receive state
information from its active peer context. The active peer context receives a notification to send a
snapshot of the current state information for all applications to the standby context.
Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine Appliance Administration Guide
6-30
describes the fields in the show ft group command output.
MAINT_MODE_OFF—Maintenance mode is turned off.
MAINT_MODE_PARTIAL— All standby contexts transition to the
FSM_FT_STATE_STANDBY_COLD state (see the "My State" field description). The ACE
enters this mode if configuration synchronization fails.
MAINT_MODE_FULL—All contexts on the ACE become nonredundant causing their peer
contexts to become active. The ACE enters this mode just before you reboot the appliance and
is used primarily when you upgrade the ACE software.
FSM_FT_STATE_INIT—Configuration for the FT group exists but the group is not in service.
This is the initial state for each member (local and peer) of an FT group.
FSM_FT_STATE_ELECT—When you configure the inservice command for an FT group, the
local group member enters this state. Through the election process, the local context negotiates
with its peer context in the FT group to determine their states. One member enters the ACTIVE
state and the other member enters the STANDBY_CONFIG state.
FSM_FT_STATE_ACTIVE—Local member of the FT group is active and processing flows.
FSM_FT_STATE_STANDBY_COLD—Either the FT VLAN is down, but the peer device is
still alive, or the configuration or application state synchronization failed. When a context is in
this state and a switchover occurs, the transition to the ACTIVE state is stateless.
FSM_FT_STATE_STANDBY_CONFIG—Local standby context is waiting to receive
configuration information from its active peer context in the FT group. The active peer context
receives a notification to send a snapshot of its running-configuration file to the local standby
context.
