HA Problem

Hello Team

I perform an active passive HA approach on my XG firewalls and as i know when the Ha is configured the configuration is copied from the active firewall to the passive one .

My question is : If by mistake the traffic of my internal network goes to the firewall which is passive firewall does he will respond back to this traffic or he will be completely silent or what ?
