Hi,

I'm using NGFP3 with Cluster XL (2 nodes) in load sharing. I had my routers
configured by my telecom operator to add static arp entries (multicast mac)
for nat purposes. I'm wondering if I can change from Load sharing mode to HA
new mode without modifying the arp entries.
Paquets will still reach the 2 nodes firewalls as my switches are flooding
paquets with multicast destination mac to all firewall ports, but I'm
wondering if the firewall node will catch those packets even if they have a
multicast destination mac and not the real mac of the node.

Regards,
