Adjustable HA Monitored Interfaces
Make it possible to add or remove a monitored port from the HA configuration. At the moment we need to rebuild the HA Cluster for simply adding a new interface to it.

This is one of a number of HA improvements in version 18 of SFOS.

Still no Update ? incomprehensible for a "Next Generation" firewall. There are so many customers out there need this feature.

Yes, I agree!
Allow Changing HA-monitored Interfaces without breaking HA like in UTM/SG - OS possible.
Why is there the need to break HA, if only a change or modification on a productive plant ist planned, that schould be online 24x7?
That´s why HA is implemeted!! -

This is ridiculous. This is a simple and very practical request and 2 years on it still isn't possible? We have just moved to Sophos and I regret it already as this is one of many issues that shouldn't be issues at all.

I agree. I had problems with this during an XG 430 HA deployment, where the safe room where the equipment is located is located in another building.

Yes, this is a huge pain, given you need physical access to the units to break and remake the HA cluster (due to the aux unit resetting to factory default settings when you unjoin it from HA mode)

Hello, is it possible to add this feature? It would be very useful for several customers.
Thanks.

Great idea. It's very annoying to have to break and recreate the HA to make a change.
