ClusterXL VSLS failover Time

Is it documented anywhere how quickly in seconds or milliseconds that a VSLS fails over on R80.40?

I suspect it, I can certainly say for most applications its seemless. I've evening upgrade a VSX node while connecting through it.

its so fast that you can document it 🙂

ive also done upgraded remotely through a VSX setup.. its a seamless failover.. no drops, EXCEPT. i believe VPN connection will have to re-establish themselves.

Also another test I have done is failover while on a softphone to confirm that voip traffic passing through the VS does not see an interruption, again no drops.

Did some failovers in R81.10 where we had some video conferencing sessions open. No drops.

Thanks All, I've had plenty of experience myself with it, I stated recently that it was in milliseconds, and was asked if this was documented anywhere.
