Dear CheckMates Community,
coud someone of you explain how failover works in a VSX environment. As far as I know, in a non VSX default setup the first and the last VLAN on a trunk interface will be monitored. If on of this VLAN can't process CCP pakets a pnote will be genarated an failover to the other (standby) cluster member.
But how does it works in VSX?
Please check below some outputs:
cphaprob -a if
