One switch fabric module (either the Passport 8690SF or Passport 8691SF) acts as
the CPU for the chassis, and the other module is the standby CPU, taking over in
case of failure. Note that the administrative and operational configurations of the
Passport 8672ATME Module are not retained after failover. When a CPU failover
occurs, all traffic on the chassis stops momentarily while the standby CPU
re-initializes all input/output modules.
