Modernizing Check Point R82 Architecture with ElasticXL (supported R82 onwards)

[Adity12]

Hi  @samirshah1 

I would like to ask about ElasticXL compatibility with VMware ESXi 6.7.

In my setup, every time I install the secondary R82 firewall VM with the same virtual switch and interface configuration as the primary, it never appears as a pending gateway from the perspective of the first ElasticXL member (Elastic 01).

Is there any known limitation for ElasticXL when running on VMware ESXi, or are there specific vSwitch settings required?

Note: Currently, I'm using R82.10 but still find the same issue as in the R82 version.

Thanks, Regards

Dio

Check out sk183513, ElasticXL supported combinations of hardware platforms in R82 and higher. It has a section on how to set up an ElasticXL cluster on ESXi. It's supported in R82.10.
