Figure 7: HA Links Options
Use the options in this menu to set up a redundant link for the HA cluster. If you are
going to use a second link, you need to set the IP address for eth1 before configuring
this setting (see "Configuring the Network" on page 23 for details). Setting a redundant
link is optional. For more information about custom settings, refer to the Network and
Security Manager Installation Guide.
If you configure HA with just one heartbeat link, then device management traffic and
data replication traffic both use that link. If you configure two links, device management
traffic uses the first link and data replication uses the second.
