Hi Experts,

I have set up an enforcement server to be the primary firewall for our firewall cluster. According to RainWall FAQ as stated below

"By itself, RainWall does not require Check Point state synchronization. However, RainWall features that leverage the state synchronization, such as transparent fail-over and VIP-based load balancing, will not function without it. If you turn off the state synchronization, automatic fail-over will occur but existing connections will be broken. Without the state synchronization, you can still dynamically load balance using the per-connection method. Rainfinity recommends enabling state synchronization."

I have not yet enable the state synchronization on my primary enforcement server as I want it to be online first before getting another machine as a secondary enforcement. Am I still able to install RainWall and made it online without requiring another machine (at this moment) to make it into a cluster ? This is only a temporary set up until we received another same spec's machine as a secondary enforcement. I'm intend to activate the state synchronization later when both are properly configured.

Thanks in advance for all your reply.

Regards,

Alex Simbun
