[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: [FW1] Nokia VRRP and Checkpoint HA
Not sure how well they co-exist, but I'm pretty sure they won't talk to each other if installed on the same machine. VRRP concerns itself only with the hardware and network connectivity. VRRP does not monitor the firewall process or policy, and failure of the FW-1 daemon will not trigger a VRRP failover. I guess this is why you want the HA module, but why would you also run VRRP if using the HA module? Using the HA module ought to eliminate the need for VRRP. BTW, I don't think the HA module is available for the Nokia platform, which would make all this a moot point. According to the datasheet, it is only available for Solaris and NT: http://www.checkpoint.com/products/vpn1/ha.html HTH, Mark L.
