High availability (HA) is a deployment in which two firewalls are placed in a group and their configuration is synchronized to prevent a single point of failure on your network. A heartbeat connection between the firewalls ensures failover in the event that a peer goes down. Setting up HA provides redundancy and allows you to ensure business continuity.
