Hitless stacking failover is enabled. In earlier releases, failover and switchover were disabled by default.
Global configuration mode
Use the no form of the command to disable hitless stacking failover. The change takes effect immediately.
The hitless-failover enable and no hitless-failover enable commands must be executed from the active stack controller.
You must assign a stack mac address to the device using the stack mac address command before you can execute the hitless-failover enable command.
The following example enables hitless stacking switchover and failover on the active controller for the stack.
device(config)# hitless-failover enable
