  It's not secondary in config-sync mode, the keyword is "alt". Single
router mode has no special commands other than

!
redundancy
 high-availability
 single-router-mode
!

  It runs in a master/slave relationship similiar to dual RSP's in a
7500:

MSFC_15#sh redun
Designated Router: 1 Non-designated Router: 2

Redundancy Status: designated

Config Sync AdminStatus : enabled

Config Sync RuntimeStatus: enabled

Single Router Mode AdminStatus : enabled

Single Router Mode RuntimeStatus: enabled
