Frederic,

choose VRRP and _uncheck_ all three checkboxes in there for maximum speed. 
That'll work. FW-1 actually doesn't care how you handle failover, "VRRP" just 
means in FW-1 terms "it's a Nokia, we sync, there can be virtual IPs, and the 
OS handles failover".

If you have an issue with non-sticky connections (although I do not expect 
that), you'd check the top checkbox, in a configuration with vips also the 
bottom checkbox, but you don't have vips, so top only should suffice. "Hide 
outgoing behind cluster IP" isn't needed. Just don't have the top unchecked and 
the bottom two checked, that creates issues.

Now, since you don't have actual virtual IPs, set all member IPs to "not 
clustered", and leave the cluster's topology as such empty. Add the sync 
network, making sure it is unique among all defined clusters in both name and 
range, and you should be set.

Subject: [FW-1] vrrp versus OSPF


Hi,

I'm running a cluster NG AI R55 HFA9 on IPSO 3.7.1 build 13.

The HA functionality is made by four routers running OSPF, and connect the
four of them to the external and internal interface of the two firewalls.

The two firewalls are part of the OPSF area of the four routers.

------            ---------
� R1  �         � R2     �
-------         ----------
  �                         �
  �                 �
-------  synchro        ---------
�Fw1  �-----------� Fw2    �
-------         ----------
  �                         �
  �                         �
------            ---------
� R3  �         � R4     �
-------         ----------

To create my cluster, I have to choose between VRRP, or OPSEC on the HA tab.
I DON'T WANT TO RUN VRRP on my cluster, because the HA functionality is made
by OSPF between the four routers and the CP cluster: So I choosed OPSEC, and
then the cluster is presented in error in SmartView status !

Is there a way to create the cluster with an OSPF as the HA solution :I
don't speak about the OSPF configuration in Voyager to include it in the
OSPF area, but what about the Check Point cluster creation ????

Frank.
