Understanding Redundant Routing Engines

Purpose

Inspect redundant Routing Engines to minimize system process failures.

What Are Redundant Routing Engines

Redundant Routing Engines are two Routing Engines that are installed in the same router. One functions as the master, while the other stands by as a backup should the master Routing Engine fail. By default, the Routing Engine in slot 0 is the master (RE0) and the one in slot 1 is the backup (RE1).
