Redundancy
With 12.1 E releases earlier than Release 12.1(13)E, the Cisco 7600 series router supports dual
supervisor engines with EHSA.
Note
EHSA is not supported in Release 12.1(13)E and later releases (see
RPR+ Supervisor Engine Redundancy,"
12.1(13)E and later releases.

Supervisor Engine Redundant Operation
Cisco 7600 series routers support fault resistance by allowing a redundant supervisor engine to take over
if the primary supervisor engine fails. The redundant supervisor engine runs in EHSA standby mode.
Note
The EHSA feature is not supervisor engine mirroring or load balancing. Network services are disrupted
until the redundant supervisor engine takes over and the router recovers.
