I have (2) SRX2300 firewalls in the switching/default gateway MNHA 
mode.  Anyone know why I'm not seeing sessions synchronized to the 
backup srx?  I'm I correct that active/backup provides for session state 
to be sent to backup for hitless failover?

They both run current JTAC recommended 23.4R2-S5.5

They both have exact same interfaces for untrust, trust and ha-link zones

Let me know if you need any more info from me to assist with tshoot.
