Due to problems in the redundancy mechanism, which are still not problems in the redundancy mechanism of the firewall cluster, further
further changes of the active cluster node have to be carried out for troubleshooting. Unfortunately, this will again lead to the termination of individual

At the same time, taking advantage of these maintenance/necessary outages, 2 central devices will be replaced in view of the upcoming 100Gbit/s expansion of the backbone will be replaced by more powerful ones in the course of the year.
