Monitoring The Integrated Switch Fabric And Switch Fabric Module; Displaying The Module Information - Cisco WS-C6506 Software Manual

Configuring and Monitoring the Integrated Switch Fabric and Switch Fabric Module on the Switch
Redundancy
No configuration is required for the Switch Fabric Module redundancy. The module in slot 5 functions
as the primary module, and a redundant Switch Fabric Module in slot 6 automatically takes over if the
primary module fails. The Catalyst 6506 and 6509 switches support a mixed redundant configuration with a
WS-C6500-SFM and a WS-X6500-SFM 2. The Catalyst 6513 switch supports a redundant configuration with
the WS-C6500-SFM2s only.
No configuration is required for the integrated 720-Gbps switch fabric redundancy. The integrated
switch fabric in the active Supervisor Engine 720 functions as the primary switch fabric. A supervisor
engine switchover will also cause a switch fabric switchover.
