Adding second node to A/P HA

When adding a secondary node to HA, do I have to define the interfaces on secondary node? More specifically, the primary uses a LACP LAG to connect to core switches. 

 

Do I need to define the LAG on the secondary, or will that config sync?

 

I do have the core switch ports configged for the LAG, not sure if need to define on FGT prior to enabling HA.

 

 

Thx,

Dave

Other than heardbeat (hbdev) and management (ha-mgmt-interfaces) interface config, all the other config including all interface config would be copied over to the secondary unit. You just need to make sure the switch side accommodates both primary and secondary in the same way.
