[FW-1] Stonebeat and multiple static routes.



Hello.

We're about to change our IP addressing scheme, and
want to temporarily make our NAT'd webservers
accessible by both their current and new IP addresses
to avoid DNS caching problems.

We have two CheckPoint 4.1 firewalls -- one in HA and
one not in HA.  In order to set up the double NAT for
the webservers, we configured a static route for each
external IP.  This resulted in two routes to the same
destination -- one for each server's current IP and
one for the new IP.

I wouldn't think this would be a problem, but the
firewalls in HA mode didn't like it at all -- we kept
losing SSH connectivity to them, etc.  Having two
routes to the same destination really seemed to screw
up HA.

Is this a known issue?  I'm at a loss as to why two
routes to the same destination would mess up HA.

Thanks!
