Title: High Availability with diferent MAC's
Yes, you can do it, but you will have to make an arp broadcast when there's a failover. This you must setup manually. Also, this is slower than using the same MAC address and you will most likely have a network outage for 5-7 seconds during the failover.
 
If sessions are dropping... Are your syncing working? Are the firewall clocks sychronized?

Hi all.

Is posible to configure HA with diferent MAC's?

We´re using HA with the same MAC and IP address, but we're having problems with our switches, some of our established sessions cut or have delays to connect.

thanks in advanced.
