Hi,
Is it possible to configure clustering on different IP subents, either for load sharing or active/passive
I.e. one firewall located on site A another in Site B

Hi,
I have attached diagram 2 sites with replica hardware in each site, it a DR senario but I want to loadshare between each site. The Ip's are fake but it will be the same concept. The idea is if one firewall fails the other site will take the load without have 2 firewalls in each site
Each site will be on a different subnet, so I don't think this is possibe as the default gateway of the router connecting the LAN, will be pointing to the firewall which will be on a differnet subnet, although I am not sure

Thanks
Layer 2 is still a Possibility. Have not decided on Layer 2 or layer 3 connecting the sites

Can you elaborate a little? Please give an example using a basic diagram with networks listed at each site.
