hi,
this "monitor fw1 status" is new since about ipso 3.7.
in older versions there was no feature like that. but in fact fw1 on ipso is a
very stable software and I never had a problem with fw1 crashing ...
and in the unlikely case fw1 crashes, then the chance that the backup-fw
crashes too (as it should be the same version) is good :-)
but with all other tools it's the same ...
cheers
reinhard

That's what I used to think until I saw it with my own eyes. In my lab I
have an IPSO 4.0.1 pair with NGX HFA_02. Run cpstop on the primary and the
secondary will take over. Run cpstart on the primary and it takes
over. Discovered it about a month ago.
