  • 1.  SRX HA pair on ESXi

    Posted 15 days ago

    Hi, 

    Hoping I could get some help after spending a very unproductive day on this. 

    I've set up 2 vSRXs on ESXi (version 7) both have 5 interfaces assigned to them. I've configured them for a HA pair. which they seem to be in, however the data plane fabric links don't seem to work. Both show as sending probes but not receiving them. 

    I'm using vlan 303 for the data plane and 304 for the control plane. This on ESXi and the switching infrastructure. I can see the MAC address for the interfaces learnt on all the switches.

    I think I have the same/similar issue to this post Security but sadly the fix didn't work for me. 

    Below is some of the relevant output. If anyone has any ideas it would be appreciated.

    Resolved!

    I'd missed that on the port group on ESXi I needed to set it to allow MAC-changes. Changing that on the VLAN that I'm using for fabric fixed it.
