Explain the situation to him.

Included in the customer’s network are some firewall systems with the Performance Pack in use. The
customer wishes to use these firewall systems in a cluster (Load Sharing mode). He is not sure if he
can use the Sticky Decision Function in this cluster. Explain the situation to him.

A.
Sticky Decision Function is not supported when employing either Performance Pack or a
hardware-based accelerator card. Enabling the Sticky Decision Function disables these acceleration
products.

B.
ClusterXL always supports the Sticky Decision Function in the Load Sharing mode.

C.
The customer can use the firewalls with Performance Pack inside the cluster, which should
support the Sticky Decision Function. It is just necessary to enable the Sticky Decision Function in the
Smart Dashboard cluster object in the ClusterXL page, Advanced Load Sharing Configuration
window.

D.
The customer can use the firewalls with Performance Pack inside the cluster, which should
support the Sticky Decision Function. It is just necessary to configure it with theCluster
XL_SDF_enable command.
