Navigate to Network > Interface Ethernet, and you will notice that ethernet1/7 and ethernet1/8 are configured in the High Availability. Now, Navigate to Network > Interface > Ethernet > select ethernet1/8 and select interface type HA. Navigate to Network > Interface > Ethernet > select ethernet1/7 and select interface type HA. This step is optional if you are using a higher range of Palo Alto Networks devices. In this step, we will configure the data plane interfaces in High Availability mode. Step1: Configure the interfaces in High Availability Mode I am going to use ethernet1/7 & ether1/8 as High Availability interfaces as shown in the below image. I’m having a Palo Alto Networks Firewall that has 1 management interface and 8 data plane interfaces. How to configure High Availability in Palo Alto Networks Firewallsīefore moving to the High Availability configuration, let’s understand the scenario we are using for this article. Let’s quickly start with the configuration. Here, we will configure High Availability on the Palo Alto VM50 devices that has PANOS 10.1.5. Palo Alto Networks Firewalls PA-800, PA-3000, PA-3200, PA-4000, PA-5000, PA-5200, and PA-5400 series devices have dedicated High Availability Links.įor VM series firewalls and PA-220 devices, you need to use data plane interfaces to use High Availability (HA). Thus, it avoids a single point of failure.Īll of the Palo Alto Networks firewalls, provide you an option to configure High Availability including VM Serves Firewalls. High Availability provides you redundancy in your network. In this article, we will discuss and configure High Availability (HA) in Palo Alto Networks Firewall.
