Symptoms:

• How do I configure the Internal Interfaces?

Facts:

• High Availability
  * X5
  * X506
  * X505
  * Internal Interfaces
  

Causes:

• There is some confusion in both the Online Help and in the paper documentation over the configuration of the internal interfaces on a High Availability pair of X-family devices.
  

  Fixes: In an X-family HA pair, internal interface(s) that are in use for any purpose - even if only for HA communication between the two devices - should be configured as a Virtual Interfaces with shared IP address and HA IP address.
  X-family devices in a High Availability pair can have internal interfaces with NAT enabled (“NAT'd”) or NAT disabled (routed).
