how to configure HA in PA VM-500 deployed in ESXi

[Deepak_K]

How we can configure HA2 for PA-VM Active passive deployment in ESXi.

Can we use ip-address from mgmt network to use it for HA2 on both firewall.

eg. 1.1.1.1  - Active firewall mgmt ip

      1.1.1.2 - Passive firewall mgmt ip

      1.1.1.3 - HA2 ip addres for Active firewall

      1.1.1.4 - HA2 ip address for Passive firewall

or do we require to take different subnet for HA2 synchronization ?

@Deepak_K,

You'll need to configure HA2 on a data plane interface by switching the interface to HA. You can utilize your MGMT VLAN if you want; as long as the peers can communicate to each other it doesn't really matter what you utilize for HA2.
