ClusterXL Solution
ClusterXL is a Check Point software-based cluster solution for Security Gateway redundancy and Load Sharing. A ClusterXL Security Cluster contains identical Check Point Security Gateways.
- A High Availability Security Cluster ensures Security Gateway and VPN connection redundancy by providing transparent failover to a backup Security Gateway in the event of failure.
- A Load Sharing Security Cluster provides reliability and also increases performance, as all members are active.

Whether to choose a Load Sharing (Active/Active) or a High Availability (Active/Standby) configuration depends on the need and requirements of the organization. A High Availability gateway cluster ensures fail-safe connectivity for the organization. Load Sharing provides the additional benefit of increasing performance.

The Active-Active mode does not provide Load Sharing of the traffic.
Administrator must monitor the load on each Cluster Member (see Monitoring and Troubleshooting Clusters).
