You enable chassis clustering on two devices and assign a cluster ID and a node ID to each device. In this scenario, what is the correct order for rebooting the devices?

Question

Options

• AReboot the secondary device, then the primary device.
• BReboot only the secondary device since the primary will assign itself the correct cluster and node ID.
• CReboot the primary device, then the secondary device.
• DReboot only the primary device since the secondary will assign itself the correct cluster and node ID.

Explanation

When chassis clustering is enabled and IDs are assigned, it is typically recommended to first reboot the secondary device. This allows the secondary device to fully integrate and recognize its role and settings within the cluster without affecting the ongoing traffic that the primary device might be handling. Once the secondary device has successfully rebooted and is operational within the cluster, the primary device can then be rebooted. This ensures that the primary device's reboot does not cause any network downtime, as the secondary device, now fully operational, can take over the traffic and roles as needed.
