HA1-A and HA1-B
Two enhanced SFP (SFP+) ports for high availability (HA)
control and synchronization. Connect this port directly
from HA1-A port on the first firewall in an HA pair to the
HA1-A port on the second firewall in the pair, or connect
these two ports to each other through a switch or router.
You cannot configure HA1 (control) on NPC data ports or
the MGT port.
