Hello all, I have two firewalls in a sync'd environment. One is primary and one is standby in an HA environment. I think there is a problem (perhaps a bug?) with the sync connections. I am now at fw 4.1 sp5. I did not see this issue at fw4.1 sp3. The fw tab connections on both firewalls always have a large discrepancy that I can't figure out. Here are a couple of examples. I was wondering is anyone else is seeing odd behavior with syncing at sp5. I am also wondering more about the behavior of syncing. What tables get synced? What causes entries to be removed from any of these three tables? I am getting confused with this problem, and concerned about how stable it will be in a failed over situation. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks..

I am also not sure what t hmem would have to do with the discrepancy. I would think the hmem would cause problems if too low, but a discrepancy is not something I would think hmem would resolve. Again, any thoughts would be appreciated. thanks, Donna firewallPrimary:>fw tab -t connections -s HOST NAME ID #VALS localhost connections 22 10287 firewallPrimary:>fw tab -t fwx_backw -s HOST NAME ID #VALS localhost fwx_backw 8188 14355 firewallPrimary:>fw tab -t fwx_forw -s HOST NAME ID #VALS localhost fwx_forw 8189 10019 firewalBackup:>fw tab -t connections -s HOST NAME ID #VALS localhost connections 22 18517 firewalBackup:>fw tab -t fwx_backw -s HOST NAME ID #VALS localhost fwx_backw 8188 1006 firewallBackup:>fw tab -t fwx_forw -s HOST NAME ID #VALS localhost fwx_forw 8189 1006 ================================================= To set vacation, Out Of Office, or away messages, send an email to [email protected] in the BODY of the email add: set fw-1-mailinglist nomail ================================================= To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================= If you have any questions on how to change your subscription options, email [email protected] =================================================
