UTM cluster on Switch cluster

Hello,

 

I am setting up an active-passive cluster of 2* 310s which should connect to a cluster of HP Switches for redundancy. I am planning to connect each 310 with each switch: 

  • First 310 -> Switch 1
  • First 310 -> Switch 2
  • Second 310 -> Switch 1
  • Second 310 -> Switch 2

The question i have is how do i configure the two interfaces on the 310s so they know they are for redundancy and should have the same IP address?

 

Thanks!

  • In active-passive cluster you will only need to make changes to 1 SG310 (the master). You can do this with the slave completely disconnected (and turned off)

    You can configure a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) where you put two interface in 1 LAG. Then do the same with the two ports on you HP switches.

    After configuring the first SG310 (including High Availability configuration) you can then also connect the second SG310 (connect all interfaces the same way as on the master and connect the HA port of both SG310's to each other) and then power on the second SG310. 

    Given that they are both on the same firmware version now, they will then sync and HA becomes active.
