Hi Christopher, I am talking about two secureplatform installations with checkpoints ha-mode, no load-balancing e.g. cluster xl. My situation is the following:
1 Switch - 2 SPLAT-HA - internal net Now, I have to find a way to get redundancy for the switch, so my idea was two network cards ore something else. br christian 2005/5/23, Chris McGill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Two Network cards on the same segment can't share the same IP address as this > causes problems with the switching tables.

Also you existing router may support similar functionality. > > Christopher McGill > CCSA, CCNA, MCP > > ________________________________ > > From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 on behalf of Christian Franke > Sent: Mon 23/05/2005 18:55 > To: [email protected] > Subject: [FW-1] Dual Network Cards and Redundancy > > > Hi all together, > > I've been setting up two systems with secur platform-ha (R55W) which > has both two network quad-cards installed.
