Note
on the standby Supervisor-1 module to the same network or VLAN. The active supervisor module owns
the IP address used by both of these Ethernet connections. On a switchover, the newly activated
supervisor module takes over this IP address. This process requires an Ethernet connection to the newly
activated supervisor module.
