I've inherited a Firewall-1 firewall and it must be available at all times.
Please note this is an internal firewall.

Question - how do I go about providing the high availability?

Do you recommend adding a further Firewall-1 box and using dynamic routing to 
have both boxes advertise routes to either side or do we address the high 
availability issue through some traditional HA OS software.

Any ideas are welcome as this is urgent.
