[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: [FW1] backup firewall
I
would do the following.
1. Build another box, doesn't
have to be identical in hardware, but should have the same about of memory
/
harddrive space
2. Setup Checkpoint on that
machine (it should have same ip address for licensing and
such.).
3. Copy all of the database
and rules files from your current machine to this new
one.
4. Do a test run of this
machine during downtime to ensure that it works
5. Make sure that any changes
to your production machine also get made on the cold swap.
What
version of Fw-1 is this?
On
what platform?
Distributed system? or standalone?
If you
want a list of the files to move and or a more exact process of how to move it,
drop me a line.

Currently I have a single firewall in place. If my system board fails, then I am dead in the water and so are my users. I would like to ask the list on tactics used to create a backup firewall. In case the main firewall does down, I can quickly place the backup firewall in place in a minimum amount of time. -- Barry W.
