ISP redundancy
Nortel Switched Firewall 2.3.3 guarantees reliable Internet connectivity by allowing a single or
clustered Switched Firewall to connect to the Internet through redundant Internet Service
Provider (ISP) links.
ISP Redundancy monitors the ISP links and directs connections to the appropriate link,
depending on the operating mode. These modes control the behavior of outgoing connections,
that is, connections from clients in the internal networks towards the Internet. The available
modes are
Load Sharing
In this mode, the load is distributed between the ISPs for all outgoing connections. New
connections are randomly assigned to a link. If a link fails, all new outgoing connections
are directed to the active link.
Primary/Backup
In this mode the initial connection to the ISP is through the primary link. If the primary
ISP link fails, then you are switched to the backup ISP link. When the primary link is
restored new outgoing connections are assigned to it.

To ensure uninterrupted secured service for the internet users accessing the hosts
behind the firewall, the high-availability VRRP setup can be deployed with a gateway cluster.
Refer to your Check Point documentation for more details on configuring for ISP redundancy.
Do not use the ISP redundancy feature on an OSPF network.

When configuring ISP redundancy, do not change the default gateway on the Nortel
Switched Firewall using the menu command,
/cfg/net/gateway
. The Check Point
software automatically installs a default gateway based on the ISP links.
