ISP Hooked Up to Core Switch First... Instead of Straight

Both firewalls in an A/P HA configuration require access to the internet circuits. The switch is making this happen by splitting the single-handoff ISP connection.

What Is a Core Switch in a Network?

Core switches are optimized for high-speed routing and forwarding, operating at Layer 3 of the network model. They feature high-speed uplinks but have a lower port density because they
