Nokia has it's own High Availability implementation via
VRRP.
It works very well for basic firewalling. VPN seems to work
fairly well also. The new UDP encapsulation mode for the
Checkpoint VPN client does not work with the High Availability
though. This is a bug and is supposed to be fixed in
Checkpoint 4.1 SP3 according to Nokia.
