CSS Box to Box Configuration Example

This example explains how to add two redundant CSS devices to the Hosting 

Solution Engine. For information on how to create a CSS VIP redundancy, see 

CSS VIP Redundancy, page 5 84

Caution

You must configure devices in redundancy mode using the device CLI before the 

Hosting Solution Engine will support them.
