If i decide yo use VRRP do I need to duplicate all firewall rules etc between all router nodes or does vrrp take care of this. IE do you configure settings on one and they are replicated. From what I have read only the IP is moved from one node to the other.

Can I buy a second OS license and in the case of a crash install the second Harddisk restore the config and bring the unit online. I could then re-apply for a replacement license for $10. Do you think this is viable.

So how do I build redundancy into my router. As hardisks are prone to crashing. What method can I use to quickly recover from a departed disk. Can I clone the image and somehow push it to a new drive with such a
utility as Symantec Ghost.
