Active Passive HA

I'm trying to setup HA for a pair of HA-3020 and the HA widget is all green and synched.

I have a network connection on our cisco core on Ethernet1/3 for the trusted network called TrustedL3 on the Primary firewall.

Do I need to use the same IP number from the Primary to the Passive firewall? I am routing my traffic to the internet from my local users thourgh that IP number for TrustedL3 on the primary firewall.

Thanks!

Hi Jim

Once the cluster is created, the IP will become shared between the 2 firewalls, so if the primary firewall were to go down, the IP address is 'moved over' (by means of gratuitous ARP) to the secondary device
