Question 579

An administrator notices interface ethernet1/2 failed on the active firewall in an active I passive firewall high availability(HA) pair.

Based on the image below, what - if any - action was taken by the active firewall when the link failed?

    Correct Answer: A

    No action was taken because interface ethernet1/1 did not fail. The link group AE1 has the 'Group Failure Condition' set to 'all', meaning both interfaces (ethernet1/1 and ethernet1/2) would need to fail to trigger a failover. Since only ethernet1/2 failed, the active firewall did not take any failover action.
