VSX Cluster Behavior on Standby VS

Hi,

I was troubleshooting an issue today at my work where we used Checkpoint VSX Configuration with VSLS High Availability mode.

The VSX cluster consists of two gateways. 

During the troubleshoot i saw that both VS's (at both Active and Standby Firewall) have arp entries for the same network. Furthermore, they do not even have the same arp entries for a specific network. For example some host are hitting the standby VS and some other hosts are hitting the active VS.

Why is this happening;;

During normal operation i think that all the arp entries must be alive only at the Active VS.

Did you experience a failover before troubleshooting started?
