DESCRIPTION
The activate (light bulb) icon is lit when the entry is active and dimmed
when the entry is inactive.
This field identifies the interface. At the time of writing, Ethernet and
bridge interfaces can be included in the active-passive mode virtual
router. The member interfaces of any bridge interfaces do not display
separately.
This is the master NXC's (static) IP address and subnet mask for this
interface. If a backup takes over for the master, it uses this IP address.
These fields are blank if the interface is a DHCP client or has no IP
settings.
This field displays the interface's management IP address and subnet
mask. You can use this IP address and subnet mask to access the NXC
whether it is in master or backup mode.
This tells whether the monitored interface's connection is down or up.
Use synchronization to have a backup NXC copy the master NXC's
configuration, certificates, AV signatures, IDP and application patrol
signatures, and system protect signatures.
Every interface's management IP address must be in the same subnet
as the interface's IP address (the virtual router IP address).
If this NXC is set to backup role, enter the IP address or Fully-Qualified
Domain Name (FQDN) of the NXC from which to get updated
configuration. Usually, you should enter the IP address or FQDN of a
virtual router on a secure network.
If this NXC is set to master role, this field displays the NXC's IP
addresses and/or Fully-Qualified Domain Names (FQDN) through which
NXCs in backup role can get updated configuration from this NXC.
Click this to copy the specified NXC's configuration.
If this NXC is set to backup role, enter the port number to use for
Secure FTP when synchronizing with the specified master NXC.
If this NXC is set to master role, this field displays the NXC's Secure FTP
port number. Click the link if you need to change the FTP port number.
Every NXC in the virtual router must use the same port number. If the
master NXC changes, you have to manually change this port number in
the backups.
Enter the password used for verification during synchronization. Every
NXC in the virtual router must use the same password.
If you leave this field blank in the master NXC, no backup NXCs can
synchronize from it.
If you leave this field blank in a backup NXC, it cannot synchronize from
the master NXC.
Select this to get the updated configuration automatically from the
specified NXC according to the specified Interval. The first
synchronization begins after the specified Interval; the NXC does not
synchronize immediately.
When you select Auto Synchronize, set how often the NXC
synchronizes with the master.
