Changing the virtual NIC on CloudGuard IaaS

Hi,

My customer has a plan to change the CloudGuard IaaS virtual NIC to another network adapter and reconfigure the IP address. This is done for the current Cluster Interface. We conducted a test with reference to sk57100. But it was not successful. When changing to a VMware network adapter, Topology was set separately and Cluster-XL could not be assembled. Can we change the settings to a virtual NIC without turning off the power?

Best,

To add or remove a NIC from the system, the VM must be powered down.
As far as I know, you can change the configuration of existing NICs.
However, your gateway objects and policy must be updated and pushed accordingly.

What about changing only the virtual switch port group without deleting the interface?
