ION5200 HA

L0 Member

I'm working with the new ION5200.  It doesn't have a controller interface which isn't that big of a deal.  I am setting them up as an HA pair for a branch and wanted to see how I should configure HA.  Typically you would use the contoller interfaces but since the 5200 doesn't have them, I wasn't certain how HA should be configured.  I'm going to have the following interfaces 1 - INET 5 - Private WAN and 9 - LAN.  Since this is HA, the secondary ION will have the same IP configuration as the primary.  Do I need an HA link between the two IONs to act as a heartbeat?

For devices without dedicated controller ports, a Switch Virtual Interface (SVI) or sub-interface is used for the HA control interface. SVIs are used for devices with switched ports (1200-S series) and sub-interfaces are used for devices with routed interfaces (non-1200-S devices).
