Title: RE: [FW-1] preserve state table over reboot? That's a very good question, and I don't know the answer. :) Read on, though... Since the state tables are implemented as dynamic hashes in kernel memory, that is awfully hard to do with just one box. You can dump the table contents in hex using fw tab, but I don't know of a way to re-inject this information. The most common way of handling this is to configure HA with state table synchronization. In this manner, as long as one of the boxes stays up, the table is preserved. If you don't need HA (and you have lots of money :), you could configure a "standby" firewall with no reachable interfaces, and just run a crossover on a dummy network to the "real" firewall, using the "standby" exclusively for state table maintenance. HTH - please post with further comments. Thanks! Dan Hitchcock
