If you have only a master and a failover appliance, with both configured to scan traffic, the master
will send most connections to the failover appliance for scanning.
If you have scanning appliances, and scanning enabled on the master and failover, then the
scanning appliances will receive the most traffic to scan, then the failover, with the master
receiving the least. If you have more than three appliances in a cluster, McAfee recommends that
you do not enable scanning on the master appliance.
You cannot configure the master or the failover blades of the McAfee Content Security Blade Server to
