The full power and advanced features of Symantec Network Security become
available when you create a group or cluster of nodes, and establish one node as
the master. A cluster of software or appliance nodes enables Symantec Network
Security to monitor all parts of a network from the central Network Security
console, and share information between nodes. In a clustered deployment, the
master node can check, update, and synchronize all nodes in the cluster.
High-availability failover deployment becomes available using pair
configurations of active and standby nodes. Users can view all Network Security
