Yes, if network connectivity to one unit is down i will need it to failover (obviously) so i guess VLAN fail safe would be what I want. Does that work OK with hardware failover? I mean can vLAN fail safe and hardware failover be used together?

 

 

Also, I have noticed that when I create a new VLAN on one unit and then sync the config, the new vlan does not show up on the standby unit.... Is this normal?
