Pix lan based failover

[vladrac-ccna]

Hello,

What's the best way to connect to PIX on a lan based failover design?

Did anyone experience problems with LAN failover?

What kind of scenarios could lead to both firewall becoming active at the same time? Is there a way to make this less likely to happen?

Please let me know,

Vlad

Without retaining PIX stateful information, after a switchover, all existing connections are dropped and the application is required to reinitiate.Refer the following URL for more information on LAN-Based Failover
