Specify the IPv4 and IPv6 virtual addresses when using the appliance in a high availability configuration. The IPv4 and IPv6 virtual addresses are used to provide integrated products with fixed IP addresses for configuration, and also determine the URLs to access the management console.

Trend Micro recommends using the original IP address of the appliance as virtual IP address so that integrated products can continue submitting objects to Deep Discovery Analyzer without any modifications to their settings.

You can select the Switch to passive primary appliance when external connection for Virtual Analyzer becomes unavailable option to have Deep Discovery Analyzer automatically switch to the passive primary appliance when the external connection for Virtual Analyzer becomes unavailable.

The following table lists configuration limitations.
