Raymond:
Not sure. We have only been using the VRRP stuff with a cross-over cable
between our FWs for the state-table syncronization. I just upgraded the IPSO and
CheckPoint versions only recently and have not have a chance to dig into the
CheckPoint HA stuff; so I do not know if we need it, or if it will buy us
anything or not. I do not know if we will need it for failing over VPNs or not
but we'll see.

Thanks for the response. I don't have any on-hand experience on the Nokia
's VRRP, that 's why I don't know the differences between the CP 's HA and
the VRRP. Now, it would appear to me that if I use Nokia, I don't need HA.
