Detailed Steps
Command
Step 1
config
Example:
host1/Admin# config
host1/Admin#(config)#
Step 2
ft interface vlan vlan_id
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# ft interface vlan 200
host1/Admin(config-ft-intf)#
no ft interface vlan vlan_id
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# no ft interface vlan
200
Step 3
ip address ip_address netmask
Example:
host1/Admin(config-ft-intf)# ip address
192.168.12.1 255.255.255.0
no ip address ip_address netmask
Example:
host1/Admin(config-ft-intf)# no ip address
192.168.12.1 255.255.255.0
Step 4
peer ip address ip_address netmask
Example:
host1/Admin(config-ft-intf)# peer ip
address 192.168.12.15 255.255.255.0

Do not use this dedicated VLAN for any other network traffic, including data.
On both peer ACE appliances, you must configure the same Ethernet port or port-channel interface
as the FT VLAN port. For example:
If you configure ACE appliance 1 to use Ethernet port 4 as the FT VLAN port, then be sure to
–
configure ACE appliance 2 to use Ethernet port 4 as the FT VLAN port.
If you configure ACE appliance 1 to use port-channel interface255 as the FT VLAN port, then
–
be sure to configure ACE appliance 2 to use port-channel interface 255 as the FT VLAN.
Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Creates an FT VLAN.
The vlan_id argument specifies a unique identifier for the FT
VLAN. Enter an integer from 2 to 4094.
This command enters the FT interface configuration mode.
(Optional) Removes an FT VLAN from the redundancy
configuration.
To remove an FT VLAN,first remove it from the FT peer
Note
by using the no ft-interface vlan command in FT peer
configuration mode.
Assigns an IP address to the VLAN.
The keyword and arguments of this command are:
address ip_address—Specifies the IP address of the FT
•
VLAN.
netmask—Subnet mask of the FT VLAN. Enter a subnet
•
mask in dotted-decimal notation.
(Optional) Removes an IP address from an FT VLAN.
Allows the local member to communicate with the remote peer.
The keyword and arguments of this command are as follows:
address ip_address—Specifies the IP address of the remote
•
peer.
netmask—Subnet mask of the remote peer. Enter a subnet
•
mask in dotted-decimal notation.
