Release Information

Statement introduced in Release 9.4 of JUNOS software.

Description

Specify the value in seconds that the SRX-series device should wait to get a heartbeat response from an Infranet Controller (default 60). If the SRX-series device does not receive a response in the specified time, it takes the action specified by the timeout-action configuration statement. It also tries again to make a connection to the Infranet Controller. After the second failed attempt, the SRX-series device fails over to the next Infranet Controller in the cluster. The SRX-series device continues trying to reach Infranet Controllers in the cluster until a connection is established.

Use this statement when you are configuring the SRX-series device to act as a JUNOS Enforcer in a Unified Access Control (UAC) deployment. When deployed as a JUNOS Enforcer, the SRX-series device enforces the policies that are defined on the UAC’s Infranet Controller. When working with a cluster of Infranet Controllers, the JUNOS Enforcer connects to one at a time, failing over to other Infranet Controllers in the cluster as required.

This statement is supported on SRX-series devices.
