Configuring HA License Overview
You can configure HA license synchronization by associating
two ADTRAN security appliances as HA Primary and HA
Secondary on NetVanta Security Portal. Note that the Backup
appliance of your HA pair is referred to as the HA Secondary
unit on NetVanta Security Portal.
You must purchase a single set of security services licenses for
the HA Primary appliance. To use Stateful HA, you must first
activate the Stateful High Availability Upgrade license for the
primary unit on the interface. This is automatic if your appliance
is connected to the Internet. See
Registering and Licensing
Your Appliance on NetVanta Security Portal - page 13 .
License synchronization is used during HA so that the Backup
appliance can maintain the same level of network protection
provided before the failover. To enable HA, you can use the
interface to configure your two appliances as a HA pair in
Active/Idle mode.
NetVanta Security Portal provides several methods of
associating the two appliances. You can start by registering a
new appliance, and then choosing an already-registered unit to
associate it with. You can associate two units that are both
already registered. Or you can select a registered unit and then
add a new appliance with which to associate it.
Note:
After registering new ADTRAN appliances, you must
also register each appliance from the management
interface by clicking the registration link on the System
> Status page. This allows each unit to synchronize
with the ADTRAN license server and share licenses
with the associated appliance.
