Да, действительно, просто очень криво написали и хорошо запрятали:

LAN-Based Failover Link

You can use any unused Ethernet interface on the device as the failover link. You cannot specify an interface that is currently configured with a name. The failover link interface is not configured as a normal networking interface; it exists only for failover communication. This interface should only be used for the failover link (and optionally for the Stateful Failover link). You can connect the LAN-based failover link by using a dedicated switch with no hosts or routers on the link or by using a crossover Ethernet cable to link the units directly.

Note When using VLANs, use a dedicated VLAN for the failover link. Sharing the failover link VLAN with any other VLANs can cause intermittent traffic problems and ping and ARP failures. If you use a switch to connect the failover link, use dedicated interfaces on the switch and security appliance for the failover link; do not share the interface with subinterfaces carrying regular network traffic.

Step 4 Define the failover interface.

a. Specify the interface to be used as the failover interface.

hostname(config)# failover lan interface if_name phy_if

The if_name argument assigns a name to the interface specified by the phy_if argument.
The phy_if argument can be the physical port name, such as Ethernet1, or a previously
created subinterface, such as Ethernet0/2.3.
