Route Processor Redundancy
Route Processor Redundancy (RPR) allows you to configure a standby RP. When you configure RPR,
the standby RP loads the Cisco IOS software on bootup and initializes itself in standby mode. In the
event of a fatal error on the active RP, the system switches to the standby RP, which reinitializes itself
as the active RP. In this event, the entire system is rebooted, so the switchover with RPR is slower than
with other High Availability switchover features such as Nonstop Forwarding/Stateful
Switchover (NSF/SSO).
