Configure Active/Passive HA for two SD-WAN branches or hubs.
You can configure two firewalls as a branch in active/passive HA mode (or two firewalls as a hub
in active/passive HA mode) to be part of your SD-WAN environment. In this case,
Panorama™ needs to push the same configuration to the active peer and the passive
peer, rather than treat the two firewalls individually. To make that happen, you
configure active/passive HA before adding the devices for SD-WAN, so that Panorama
is aware the devices are HA peers and pushes the same configuration to them.
Read through the following procedure before
you begin so you don’t Commit after adding your HA peers as SD-WAN
devices.
In HA, the firewall does not synchronize
SD-WAN session distribution statistics. After an HA failover, the
session distribution statistics display only statistics of new sessions;
statistics of existing sessions are lost.
