In an environment with FWLB, can the CSM be configured to handle multiple FW farms?

A. Yes, multiple FW farms can be configured so that traffic to and from a specific network (customer) can be sent to a specific set of FWs. You can configure different VLANs and use them to control the traffic to and from FWs.

You can state that all traffic coming from VLAN x should go to FW 1 (or FW farm 1) and all traffic coming from VLAN Y should go to FW2 (or FW farm 2). This is possible on the CSM in software version 2.1(1). Q.

What algorithms can be used to load balance firewalls on the CSM? A. Most new load balancers, as well as the CSM, can choose different balancing criteria based on protocol.

They can also be intelligent about remembering where connections arrive from. In these scenarios, for those protocols that do not need fix-ups, or for which the load balancer has fixups, you can use whatever balancing metric you wish for FWLB. For example, the CSM can FW-load balance HTTP, FTP, Telnet, and SMTP using any metric (least connections, etc work fine) and use address hashing ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
