HA network configuration | Fortinet 400 instruction

High availability	HA in NAT/Route mode

The network equipment to use and the procedure to follow are the same, whether you are configuring the FortiGate units for active-active HA or active-passive HA.

To connect the FortiGate units to your network:

1Connect port 1 of each FortiGate unit to a switch or hub connected to your internal network.

2Connect port 2 of each FortiGate unit to a switch or hub connected to your external network.

3Optionally connect port 3 of each FortiGate unit to a switch or hub connected to another network.

4Connect the 4/HA interfaces of the FortiGate units to another switch or hub.

Figure 14: HA network configuration

When you have connected the cluster, proceed to “Starting the HA cluster”.
