Chapter 4 Configuring High Availability (HA) Installing a Clean Access Server High Availability Pair • [Primary] Peer MAC Address (trusted-side interface): The peer MAC address from the trusted side (eth0) of the HA-Primary CAS. • [Primary] Peer MAC Address (untrusted-side interface): The peer MAC address from the untrusted side (eth1) of the HA-Primary CAS. • Heartbeat UDP Interface 1: This setting specifies eth0 as a failover IP interface on the CAS. If a dedicated Ethernet connection is not available, Cisco recommends using eth0 for the Heartbeat UDP interface when configuring a Clean Access Server in HA mode. • [Primary] Heartbeat IP Address on eth0: The IP address of the trusted interface (eth0) of the HA-Primary CAS. • Heartbeat UDP Interface 2: This setting specifies eth1 as a failover IP interface on the CAS. If you configure your CAS HA system to use eth0 as the primary failover heartbeat connection, you can also use the eth1 interface as a redundant heartbeat monitor. • [Primary] Heartbeat IP Address on eth1: The IP address of the untrusted interface (eth1) of the HA-Primary CAS. • Heartbeat UDP Interface 3: Options are N/A, eth2, or eth3. If a dedicated Ethernet connection is not available, Cisco recommends using eth0 or another Ethernet interface for the Heartbeat UDP interface when configuring a Clean Access Server in HA mode. Note Before you can specify either the eth2 or eth3 interfaces to be Heartbeat UDP Interface 3, you must manually configure the interface using the CAS CLI. There are no eth2 or eth3 configuration settings (IP address, netmask, etc.) available via the CAS web console. For instructions, see Configuring Additional NIC Cards, page 3-37. • [Primary] Heartbeat IP Address on Interface 3: The IP address of the tertiary failover heartbeat link configured on the HA-Primary CAS. Note You must configure at least one of the additional Ethernet interfaces on the HA-Primary CAS to connect to a peer interface on the Secondary CAS in order to support HA behavior. In an HA scenario, The Ethernet interface you configure serves as the medium for data sync between the Primary and Secondary CAS. Note Cisco strongly recommends you do not use the serial interface on the NAC-3315/3355/3395 for the HA heartbeat function. Although this element still appears in the CAM web console, the Heartbeat Serial Interface feature is being deprecated in a future Cisco NAC Appliance release. (The associated Heartbeat Timeout value remains a valid configuration point, however, for deployments using optional Heartbeat UDP interfaces 2 and 3.)
