Thanks for the reply Aaron. This option is not optional while configuring through GUI interface.

 

 

I have a active-standby configuration and while configuring i have Unit-1, it is working fine. But i still dont understand what this option.

 

 

My guess was that " when we try to access the floating IPaddress it takes us to primary node which is Unit -1, so if we change to Unit-2 it will take to secondary unit :-) "
