HA of ASAv in Azure

[Turbo727]

Hello Everyone,

I've been trying to deploy ASAv on the edge of Azure network to protect the VMs. I was excited that Cisco and Azure announced the improved support of ASAv on Azure platform, however, after going through the data sheet, it appears HA is still not supported.  I understand this is due to limitation of layer 2 support. Any one knows if there is a workaround for ASAv in Azure scenario, like failover on a VM level or we should just assume everything in the cloud should be zero fault.

Always try and design systems to be tolerant of failure.

I suspect (but don't know) the closest solution will be to deploy two separate ASAvs and to use a front end load balancer to spread the load between them.  Just make sure the load balancer sticks the same sessions to the same ASAv.

In HA (Azure) is not maintain the sate
