Hi Karen, Not sure what platform your using, but I know it is possible to maintain a "warm spare" with SecurePlatform. This can be done by using the built-in backup script on the production machine, and the restore script on the warm spare machine. Only thing from memory that needed to be changed were the mac addresses recorded for each nics. If it can be done with SecurePlatform, I guess it is possible for other platforms, but my knowledge of othe platforms is limited....

Is there any way to create a backup with NG without using High Availability? With FW-4.1 you could copy over certain directories to a backup that was not on the network and install the policy. If the production firewall went down you could just plug in the backup. This does not seem to be the case with NG due to the certificate updates. Does anyone know if there is a way to do something similar to the FW-4.1situation? Can we periodically switch from one FW to another in time for the certificate to update? If our firewall goes down is there a way to switch to a backup and get the new certificates for the other firewall quickly? Or is there something else that needs to be done?
