You can also use SNMP to manage the cluster by configuring a cluster interface for
SNMP administrative access. Using an SNMP manager you can get cluster
configuration information and receive traps. For a list of HA MIB fields, see “HA MIB
fields” on page 111 and “FortiGate HA traps” on page 110.
You can change the cluster configuration by connecting to the cluster and changing
the configuration of the primary FortiGate unit. The cluster automatically synchronizes
all configuration changes to the subordinate units in the cluster as the changes are
made.
The only configuration change that is not synchronized is the FortiGate host name.
You can give each cluster unit a unique host name to help to identify cluster members.
You can use the web-based manager to monitor the status and logs of individual
cluster members. See “To view the status of each cluster member” on page 101 and
“To view and manage logs for individual cluster units” on page 102.
You can manage individual cluster units by using SSH to connect to the CLI of the
cluster. From the CLI you can use the execute ha manage command to connect to
the CLI of each unit in the cluster. You can also manage individual cluster units by
using a null-modem cable to connect to the primary cluster unit. From there you can
also use the execute ha manage command to connect to the CLI of each unit in the
cluster. See “To manage individual cluster units” on page 103 for more information.
