Setting Up a High
Availability System
In a WatchGuard High Availability (HA) system, two
Firebox Vclass appliances are connected so that one
serves as a ready backup to the other if the main appli-
ance fails while managing network traffic. This chap-
ter guides you in connecting, linking, and running
such a high availability (HA) system using two Fire-
box Vclass appliances in a primary and standby rela-
tionship.

Active/Active requires the purchase of a software
upgrade license, and requires V80 or V100
hardware. Please refer to the WatchGuard Web
