Hi
Are you using Nokia IP Clustering protocol for clustering?. If you use
this protocol in "forwarding mode" than you do not have to worry about
the MAC address. Its issue when you use the multicast mode for
Clustering when switches give problem. Go through Nokia
Clustering_config guide.The config is very simple. You do not have to
define any routes. In forwarding mode ,the master decides which FW will
process the packet.

Subject: [FW-1] IPSO clustering and R55

Dear all:

Did anyone encouter any issue with R55 with IPSO 3.7.1 clustering
running on IP380? Is there any other latest version I should run on
IP380 meanwhile giving me stability? There is only limited version of
IPSO can run on IP380. (No IPSO3.6, 3.7, 3.8...) Is there anything I
need to be aware on switching side?
These 2 FWs will connect to 2 separated 2950. Do I need to define static
arp in switch for the virtual MAC? I just wonder how the switch can
understand while the FW is load balancing. Do I also need to define
default route on each FW to acheive load balancing/redundency?
Any input is appreciated.

Many thanks.

Wayne
