System Config
This section describes the configuration of several non-network features, such as
HA, SNMP, custom replacement messages, and VDOM operation.
The following topics are included in this section:
• HA
• SNMP
• Replacement messages
• Operation mode and VDOM management access
HA, SNMP and Replacement messages are part of the global configuration of the
FortiGate unit. Changing operation mode applies to each individual VDOM.
HA
FortiGate high availability (HA) provides a solution for two key requirements of
critical enterprise networking components: enhanced reliability and increased
performance. This section contains a brief description of HA web-based manager
configuration options, the HA cluster members list, HA statistics, and the
disconnecting cluster members.
For complete information about how to configure and operate FortiGate HA
clusters see the FortiGate HA Overview, the FortiGate HA Guide, and the Fortinet
Knowledge Center.
HA is not available on FortiGate models 50A, 50AM and 224B. HA is available on
all other FortiGate modules, including the FortiGate-50B.
The following topics are included in this section:
• HA options
• Cluster members list
• Viewing HA statistics
• Changing subordinate unit host name and device priority
• Disconnecting a cluster unit from a cluster
HA options
Configure HA options so that a FortiGate unit can join a cluster or to change the
configuration of an operating cluster or cluster member.
To configure HA options so that a FortiGate unit can join an HA cluster, go to
System > Config > HA.
Note: For FortiOS v3.0 MR2 and previous versions, this HA section included extensive
detail about HA. Starting with FortiOS v3.0 MR3 you should refer to the FortiGate HA
Overview or the FortiGate HA Guide for the full HA story.
