摘要
Methods and systems are provided for an improved cluster-based network architecture. According to one embodiment, an active connection is established between a first interface of a network device and an enabled interface of a first cluster unit of a high availability (HA) cluster. The HA cluster is configured to provide connectivity between network devices of an internal and external network. A backup connection is established between a second interface of the network device and a disabled interface of a second cluster unit. While the first cluster unit is operational and has connectivity, it receives and processes all traffic originated by the network device that is destined for the external network. Upon determining the first cluster unit has failed or has lost connectivity, then all subsequent traffic originated by the network device that is destined for the external network is directed to the second cluster unit.
