Deploying Two-Node HA

  1. Deploy and run HA on the active node by referring to Deploying and Running HA.
  2. Deploy and run HA on the standby node by referring to Deploying and Running HA.
  3. Check the active/standby status of the edge devices.

    Log in to an edge device in the HA cluster and run the ip addr | grep 192.168.xx.xx (floating IP address/VIP) command. If the configuration information is displayed, the current device is the active node. If no information is displayed, the current device is the standby node.

  4. Check whether the VIP takes effect.

    Run the ping floating IP address/VIP command on the third edge device (except the active and standby nodes). If the command is successfully executed, the VIP has taken effect.

To implement HA, you need to deploy the HA software on two edge devices to serve as the active and standby nodes.
