If you add the Unit 2 in a device group with Unit 1 and configure it with all the required settings (config sync, network failover and mirroring) then you can push the config from Unit 1 to Unit 2. It will however require Unit 2 to be configured with the required network settings (vlans, selfip, routes).

Thank you for your response Cristian.
As i can understand that i need to create device group and add the unit 1 and unit 2 in it.
Post adding it in device group if i do sync will it not mirror all the config from unit 1 to unit 2 ?
As there will be option right to sync from Device to group, so i can sync Unit 1 to group.
Sync doesn't mirror all config from unit 1 to unit 2 ? Like Vlan , virtual IP , Partitions etc..
Then what exactly Syc option do ?

what version of code?
you will need to add the pairing LTM on each device under Device. Follow docs on setting u config-sync etc.
Create a device group create a device on each device if not there already - Alex_104543

Hi,
Low level network settings such as vlans, non-floating self-IPs etc are not sync'd.
