Sensor failover issues

Prev Next

Checking the following connections and settings might resolve Sensor failover issues:

  • The Sensor model and Sensor image version on both the peer Sensors should be the same.

  • The Sensor license and IPv6 status should be identical on the peer Sensors.

  • Identify the interconnect port for the selected model because the interconnect ports vary for different models.

  • Check on the FO type setting on the Sensor. The failover creation would fail if the FO type is set on the primary Sensor.

  • The Sensor health status should be good and normal.
