In an HA configuration, the two SBC platforms
platforms are connected to each other with two
1Gb1 Gb/s HA links. The connection provides box-level redundancy.
Each of the HA peer SBC platforms has 4
platforms has four management ports with their own addresses, and these platforms can each be controlled through these addresses whether the platform is currently in an Active or Standby state. Additionally, the user can assign a Logical Management address to the HA pair (refer to
Configuring Logical Management Interfaces). The user can control the Active HA peer through this Logical Management address and When switchover occurs, the logical management address follows the currently active server.

The SBC will fail to pair with a machine that is not operating with an identical configuration (for example, same Media Port Speed setting for both SBC 5400 HA peers). Furthermore, an SBC can only pair with another SBC platform of the same type (for example, an SBC 5400 can only pair with another SBC 5400). |
