Title: Endian community 2.3 server fail-over configuration?
Post by: vinodbv on Thursday 01 April 2010, 03:14:10 pm
Is it possible to configure two endian community 2.3 servers with same configurations so as one can act as backup of the other and automatically take over in case one system fails? I just want to ensure that the network never goes down in case the firewall ie. endian fails, which is configured on pentium 4 PC. My setup is the VLANS are routed in Layer 3 HP switch, Procurve 3400cl,  and the default route in switch goes to local interface of endian ie. GREEN. The other interface ie. RED of endian is assigned public IP from ISP. AS the switch not supporting two default routes, its not possible to simply configure two endian boxes and use a second default route with higher matrix in switch. please help.

You can not do this with the Endian Community version, but you can with the Endian Firewall Enterprise version.
The community version is not aimed at businesses.
