You do realize that the MSFC's do not synchronize configurations like the
superivisor modules. If you want redundancy at the Layer 3 level you must
use HSRP on the MSFC's for your VLANs. Keep in mind the MSFC's are always
active and are not in standby mode even though the supervisor module it
resides on may be in standby.

Subject: [nsp] Unusual Cat 6509 MSFC Problem

After failing the Sup modules over to the standby, as a test, the layer 3
connectivity to the Switch seems to be fried. On the Switch console we can
see the cdp entries for all the cisco devices directly connected to it, but
we cannot ping any of these devices from the MSFC card.

Any Idea's?
