Hello
All...
We currently have
a Nokia IP440, and we are purchasing a second one.
I am not sure what
I need for the second, and what I need to change/configure in order to make
these work for us.
I would like to
balance the load across these, and our routers on each side support firewall
load balancing, but I was also told that I might need to do some other
things.
Do I need to
setup the management console on another server?[Tim
Cullen] Yes I have a few NT servers I could put
it onto... would that work?[Tim
Cullen] Yes
Also, how do
I handle IP addressing with the load balanced firewalls?[Tim Cullen] Ip addressing
is a little tricky. It will not matter if you use VRRP or a third
party solution, you will need a shared IP for the Cluster address for all
interfaces being load balanced.
For
example:
FW1
FW2
10.1.1.1
10.1.1.3
Real IP
Real IP
\
/
\
/
\
/
FW Cluster
(virtual
address)
10.1.1.2
If anyone has any
info that could help me out, I would really appreciate it!
Visio
drawing would be really nice as well!
Thanks in
advance!
