Maestro, adding different hardware appliance to SecurityGroup

Wolfgang — Wed, 04 Aug 2021 06:40:26 GMT

Hello CheckMates,

with R81.10 it's now supported to mix the appliance hardware in a security group.

Are there any limitations or something to consider. We want to add two 15600 appliances to a security group with 7000.

One thing I know, we had to use the same line cards in all appliances, we had to add new 40GB line cards to the 15600 and remove all other.

More ?

Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,

Please review the information & combinations published in sk162373 as a starting point.

Thanks @Chris_Atkinson

that's the table I need. Some other needed combinations are not possible 😞

I'm not surprised. True mix and match just sounded too good.

Yes @Danny , I agree with you. I thought that we can reuse some "older" appliances in new Maestro environments. But most of the needed combinations are not supported.

@Chris_Atkinson any changes planned ?

Hi Wolfgang,

Changes are likely subject to demand / business case (RFE).

If you have a need, please raise it with your local CP SE.
