Re: [FW-1] TCP out of state and install policy



If for ***any reason*** VRRP is transitioning, there exists the possibility
that traffic may depart through one firewall and return through another.  If
the state tables have not had time to synchronize, then the return packet
will cause the error you are seeing because the "initial" packet was not
seen by the firewall in question.

This is not the only reason which would cause that error, but it is
certainly a possibility.

Once VRRP has reached a stable state ("settled"), this should no longer
happen if VRRP/Monitored Circuit is configured correctly because traffic
should be departing and returning through the same firewall.

Sorry for the lazy language.

Regards
Bill
