******************
Test DHCP Failover
******************

Description
===========

Test scenario to check the DHCP Failover feature. The configuration for this feature has 2 peers, the main and the secondary server.
The main server will provide the leases, while the secondary will help in case of error or act as backup if the main one fails.
This scenario will check everything is properly configured, meaning it will check peer to peer whether its state and that of its partner are normal.

**************************
Test DHCP Failover Disable

The CLI will then send a message saying the server is not running. We will then restart this service and check everything works properly.
