Hi All,
I am keen to have our NMS systems carry out a crude check to ensure that NODE1 of an SRX cluster is responding to ICMP.
We gather all SNMP information via the loopback address that is operational over node0 and 1, however I find no easy way of alerting if node1 fails for example.
I just want to be able to introduce a remotely accessible address so that A) We can SSH to Node1 directly if needed from remote. B) We can get an ICMP response from Node1.
Is there a way to do this without have something connected into the FXP ports and using a second loopback for example that only Node1 can respond to?
I do not think this config is the answer to my issue.
set groups node0 system host-name SRX1500-HOSTNAME
set groups node0 system backup-router <Management-Gateway-IP>
set groups node0 system backup-router destination <Management Network>
set groups node0 interfaces fxp0 description MGMT
set groups node0 interfaces fxp0 unit 0 family inet address <Management IP>
set groups node1 system host-name SRX1500-HOSTNAME
set groups node1 system backup-router <Management-Gateway-IP>
set groups node1 system backup-router destination <Management Network>
set groups node1 interfaces fxp0 description MGMT
set groups node1 interfaces fxp0 unit 0 family inet address <Management IP>
set apply-groups "${node}"
