CONDITIONAL HIGH AVAILABILITY PEERING IN AN ALL-ACTIVE NEXT GENERATION FIREWALL (NGFW) CLUSTER

原文（中国語）

A conditional high availability peering among all members of an all-active NGFW cluster is established. Data paths are monitored via a dynamic routing protocol capable of conditional advertisement, such as BGP, to detect network isolation failures. Peering can be temporarily suspended with the remote NGFWs by withdrawing the local IP address used for high availability peering to the remote NGFWs, responsive to the detected data path failure. Responsive to detecting a cure of the failed data path using said dynamic routing protocol, the high availability peering to remote NGFW nodes is automatically restored by resuming advertisement of the local peering IP address of the NGFW, wherein the high availability peering is reactivated for all remote NGFW nodes.
