PA 440 firewall with the wan interface in pope mode.

When the firewall is in standalone the ppoe negotiation works fine.

If configure the firewall in cluster active-passive, an issue with PPoE negotiation with this message:

Guess I've never used a PPoE connection with an active/passive setup, but what happens if you set passive link state to shutdown instead of Auto?

When disabling the HA mode, the PPPoE connection works fine, and the ppoe session doesn’t fail.
