Standby Gateway Issue

gemechisd — Wed, 10 Apr 2024 14:46:16 GMT

We have two checkpoint gateways configured as Cluster Active/Standby. Now we have an issue when the standby gateway is Active we can not able to reach the internet. All routes are there on both gateways. We have cross checked everything on our environment. Can anyone help us on this

How about the routes on the adjacent devices and arp entries?

Also If NAT addresses are dependant on proxy-arp have you double checked those values?

I would suggest to contact CP TAC to get this resolved asap!

@Chris_Atkinson

Thanks for the quick reply. We have checked the routes on both devices, and they are the same. And we have cleared ARP Table entries by flushing them, but when we change the standby to active, there is no change But the standby gateway itself will get internet access.

Can you share which version/JHF level the gateways are running ?
