If the primary and backup nodes, are not synchronized and both nodes are running a version of ExtremeXOS that supports synchronization, proceed to step Step 2.
If the primary and backup nodes, are synchronized, proceed to step Step 3.
The output displays the status of the primary and backup nodes, with the primary node showing MASTER and the backup node showing BACKUP (InSync).
After you confirm that the nodes are synchronized, proceed to step Step 3.
