I'm basically trying to find out if it need to buy ClusterXL to do high availability or if I can do without it.
If you want Active/Standby you do not need ClusterXL.

The "Second gateway for HA" is what you want.

Pro version:
CPMP-HVPG-250-NG Enterprise Solutions Perimeter Security (VPN-1) High Availability VPN-1 Pro Gateways for 250 Users 250 $6,400

Express version:
CPXP-HVPX-250-NG Mid-Size Business Solutions Check Point Express High Availability VPN-1 Gateway for 250 users 250 $6,000

Express CI Version:
CPXP-CI-HVPX-250-NG Mid-Size Business Solutions Check Point Express VPN-1 Express CI for 250 users - secondary 250 $7,600
