Re: [FW-1] High Availability

1. I think its the secondary firewall, but could be both.
2. You configure what makes it failover.
3. Not sure what you're asking.
4. I have the Checkpoint HA product on NG and it is working great! Words can't explain how happy I am with the product, so far. Let me know what you find out.

Subject: [FW-1] High Availability


We are in the process of testing Check Points High Availability.  We are
running on ver. 4.1, on sun sparc 10, running Solaris 7.  I have 3
questions...

1. Which machine monitors the primary firewall to see if it has failed ? is
it the management station, or the secondary firewall ?

2. We have several DMZ's off a quad card on the firewall.  If only one of
those legs fail, does it fail over ?

3. In the DMZ's we support several web sites, and must set up ARP's in a
start up script so IP's of the web sites are taken by the firewall.  Can we
be running the ARP's on both the Primary and Secondary firewalls without
both machines wanting to take the request, or do we need to manually run the
ARP's after the fail over ?

Also, can I get some feed back from the people who have tried checkpoints
High Availability solution....good or bad ?

Thank you very much
