It sounds to me that this would be more dependant on which routing protocol
you use, and not the firewall directly.  The routing protocol needs to be
able to failover to the other site, once the traffic gets to the firewall it
should be able to handle it fine.

Subject: [FW1] Failover between two geographically separated firewalls



Hi Folks,

I would appreciate any help of the following issue:

We have three offices all connected thru dedicated T1 lines.  We also have a
checkpoint firewall v4.1 at our main location and internet access.  The
other two offices also access internet thru the main office.  We are
planning to add another firewall and a internet access at one of the other
two locations.  The reason we want to add the second firewall and second
internet connection is that we want automatic failover as well as load
balancing.  

The requirement is simple:  we want internet access to be available all the
time thru the other firewall / internet connection if one firewall /
internet connection goes down.  Please not that we are talking about
failover between separate geographic locations.

Is this possible thru the Checkpoint firewall v4.1 or we have to buy a third
party solution?

Thanks.
