Question
When a new firewall joins a high availability (HA) cluster, the cluster members will synchronize all existing sessions over which HA port?

Explanation
In Palo Alto Networks HA clustering configurations (particularly for large-scale deployments such as PA-7000 Series), HA4 is the designated link used for bulk session synchronization when a new cluster member joins and needs to receive the full existing session table from its peers. HA1 carries control-plane heartbeat and HA state information. HA2 handles ongoing incremental session state synchronization during normal operation. HA3 is used in active-active configurations for packet forwarding between peers. HA4 handles the large-volume bulk synchronization required when a new node joins the cluster.
