Any hardware should work fine. They recommend a separate NIC/port for
the sync traffic since if syncing states there can be a lot of traffic (if not
syncing state there is probably very little). I don't think it needs to be
identical hardware but the rules would need to copy over so it would need the
same ports.
One gotcha that caught me...under "System/High Availability
Sync/Configuration Synchronization Settings (XMLRPC Sync)" there is a "Remote
System Username" field. That field is ignored, and "admin" is always used.
