5.1.3.2.1 Fast switching mode

Figure 5.24 illustrates switching behavior of Fast switching mode.

In the following figure, the takeover IP address (IPa) is allocated to the takeover virtual interface (sha0:65) for operating node A. Then it activates the takeover virtual interface. When switching the interface due to failures in the transfer path, the takeover virtual interface (sha0:65) for operating node A becomes inactive. Then in standby node B, the takeover virtual interface (sha0:65), which has allocated the takeover IP address (IPa) becomes active. Note that the virtual interface (sha0) in node A stays unchanged.
