Setup HA with existing system

[harald.wachauer]

Hi,

i am wondering if it is possible to setup HA with a existing, configured system.
I have pfsense in a virtuall invirement to seperate two networks, so only firewall rules in place.
For more comfort on doing maintanance etc. I would like to set up HA.
Any experience anyone? :-)

thanks a lot, Harald

It's possible, but with some downtime.
Check out https://www.netgate.com/resources/videos/high-availability-on-pfsense-24.html - if I remember correctly Jim is talking about it. Not 100% sure but the hangout is worth watching anyway if you want to go for HA.
