Netscreen High Availability & IP Tracking problem.

May 18, 2007 4 Replies

I have two Netscreen 100s with ScreenOS 2.6 setup in a HA failover configuration. The problem I'm having is that when I sync the two units, the slave box gets an exact copy of the masters configuration and then shuts down all duplicate IP addresses, including the external untrusted port. This means that the slave cant ping anything, and thus will allways generate failures when I set it up to track an IP.



Do I need to give the salve box a unique public IP via a serial reconfiguration of the masters setup? If so, why isn't this talked about in any of the documentation?

ScreenOS 2.6 is more than outdated.

Typical, people like to spend money for a shiny device (in this case even for two of them) but do not like to buy a service contract to get software updates for their shiny box(es).

ScreenOS 2.6 has no known security problems and has all the features I need. I dont see why I should spend thousands of dollars upgrading.

But thanks for not answering my question or even making an attempt to help.

Hi,

_no_ known is defined a bit differently. It may be so, that you are not affected.

So that there is anyone besides historians who can help you.

2.6 was current when I started using netscreens, hmm, 5 years ago? Last time I check, it was something like 5.x. There is not much similarity left.

I did, you just didn't get the answer you wanted to hear.

Cheers, Jens
