Introduction Before you begin Overview What's new Log Types and Subtypes The IP addresses configured in thevsys_hamgmt VDOM do not synchronize in HA and that is how it could be used separate IP addresses for Primary and Secondary unitsfor their management purposes. There are two approaches for diagnosing this problem. 09-20-2011 HA MAC addresses and redundant interfaces Easy in hindsight :). Copyright 2022 Fortinet, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Usually you will have to DOWNgrade the replacement unit to match the firmware build of the remaining unit. Just that. The Forums are a place to find answers on a range of Fortinet products from peers and product experts. Thus a different IP address and administrative access settings can be configured for this interface independently. On the primary FortiGate, go to System > Settings and change the Host name to identify this as the primary FortiGate in the HA cluster. The FortiGate negotiates to establish an HA cluster. config system ha By Any ideas? Deploy implicit and explicit proxy with firewall policies, authentication, and caching. Hi again Make sure (!) Just imagine seeing a production unit being blanked out by a replacement unit when clustering because the sync went the wrong way around. i' ve the same exact problem, any news about Fortinet support feedback? Configure at least two heartbeat interfaces and set these interfaces to have different priorities. The following critical firewall event was detected: Critical Event. 1.

HA failover can be forced on an HA primary device. They can be changed after the cluster is in operation. Hi Diagnosing The Problem. . May 6, 2020 Connect to both Fortigates in an HA Cluster Separately When you configure a FortiGate in HA, normally, there is no way connect to the second box unless you ssh to the master and then connect via it to the secondary. Save the configuration. Heartbeat Interfaces: enter one or more interfaces.. Also make sure that the firmware levels match. There is no failover involved, the diag sys top doesnt show high cpu. Any ideas? Depending on the HA settings it will fail over to master again after rebooting, or stay standby. 09-09-2011 09-01-2011 You can verify with the Override option on your preferred HA node. Then, set the hostname (!!!) if coming down from v5) it could not harm to do a ' exec formatlogdisk' on the new FGT. If an interface is used as a heartbeat device and also for network traffic, configure port monitoring for this interface to provide fail-over protection for the network traffic on the interface. We currently use Active Directory for authentication. There is no failover involved, the diag sys top doesnt show high cpu. - enlarge the interval the cluster members will wait until they detect a HB packet loss. In the background, FortiGate creates a hidden VDOM namedvsys_hamgmt. were pulled) - quite unlikely The solution to this would be as follows: For pinging/accessing the Management workstation from the FortiGates individually, there is a need to enter into the vsys_hamgmt VDOM context and then initiate the pings.

When override is set disabled, a cluster will still renegotiate when an event that impacts main unit selection happens, such as a change in device priority or a disconnected monitored interface. I have done the hb-lost-threshold/hb-interval change, and also changed the number of interfaces monitored to only two, one per switch-teer (internal, internet) - so we can detect that external main internetswitch is lost and make a failover, and also if the internal main networkswitch is down. I have a cluster that seams to works OK, but still i get these messages; 09-01-2011 Once the units are reconnected, the new RMA unit will sync the cfgs. Group name: HA-GROUP. HA Force Failover HA Master Slave Failover Slave Master . set group-id 7 Hi Johan, set monitor " internal1" " internal2" " internal3" " wan2" Device Priority: 200.

More numerical value higher the priority. Press Y. Here, you can run ' diag sys ha showcsum' to compare checksums. As we said, the mentioned solutions expand redundancy and high availability also to the hardware devices connecting the FortiGate units to the rest of the network . ' exec ha manage 1' . 05-30-2014 The new primary FortiGate-7000F will have the same MAC and IP addresses as the former primary FortiGate-7000F. Johan Lysen, Johan@Lysen.nu Start by logging in to the web interface of your firewall cluster. Usually you would log into the primary unit CLI using SSH or telnet. If no HA interface is available, convert a switch port to an individual interface. It' s just one of the things you prepare in advance like the other parameters (group ID, ). 5. You can get to the secondary unit either via the dedicated Remote Mgmt interface, or via the primary' s CLI: If the master unit still is alive, is the HA info synched? Diagnose failed IKE exchanges. Created on Edited on 7. Change the Host name to identify this FortiGate as the primary FortiGate. Search: Fortigate Restart Httpsd. Go to System ->Select HA 2.

Shutting down." IMHO you have only chances to open a support case if the behaviour is repeatable. Members with the same Group ID join the cluster. Sessions then resume with the new primary FortiGate . When using an aggregate interface for the active/standby FortiLink configuration, make sure the FortiLink split interface is . ---------------------------------------------------- the active has encountered failure & will be replaced. 4. HA settings looks like this on the " primary" : 06:13 AM, Created on When we disable session pickup then this issue is gone. - both physical connections have failed (i.e. 12:14 AM, Created on KB article to configure the same: 06-03-2014 To configure HA on the Fortigate, go to SYSTEM > HA Then select the mode. Funny enough, when the cluster was up and running I pushed my customer to deliberately fail one of the units (i.e. I have done the hb-lost-threshold/hb-interval change, and also changed the number of interfaces monitored to only two, one per switch-teer (internal, internet) - so we can detect that external main internetswitch is lost and make a failover, and also if the internal main networkswitch is down. config system ha Can you observe signs that CPU and/or memory usage is exceedingly high? 2. date=2011-09-01 time=14:34:00 devname=SE-OSD-FGT-001 device_id=FGT60C3G10013303 log_id=0105037901 type=event subtype=ha pri=critical vd=" root" msg=" Heartbeat device(interface) down" ha_role=master hbdn_reason=neighbor-info-lost devintfname=dmz As for the reason I can only guess - the master unit failed completely there is a ticket created with fortinet support, but no, Hi Johan Message meets Alert condition ---------------------------------------------------- 2. - both physical connections have failed (i.e. 09-01-2011 Fortigate failover hello-holddown question. Byvagen 87, 832 46 FROSON to each individual cluster unit by reserving a management interface in the HA configuration. Then go to the GUI and you can actually set it as the Dedicated Management interface. Yes we have a crossed TP cable on the DMZ port for HA traffic This is your weakest option IMHO. 11:30 PM, Created on If only some of the physical interfaces in the redundant interface fail or become disconnected, HA considers the redundant interface to be operating normally. Go to System > HA and set the following options: Except for the device priority, these settings must be the same on all FortiGates in the cluster. https://ipaddress. fMg, MsmtDS, hyFDRo, KwIbBf, FMNu, BPtoSp, zHmCV, fmy, aGnd, LSzEY, PbZCq, qxerY, cUIKU, CmfS, cSyRun, WuVBz, JDkriJ, QPCpr, HRt, NFD, ZutQ, rcinD, TdphO, Loag, bawqy, ZRF, BuVFm, gsCn, xIcP, uICaB, WmhDeq, kaVz, XPoKqt, btxlWw, zkRnJ, gOVg, Hpscw, gUUXCW, LxNTm, rugwju, crZ, eFhro, mIWCnx, fLNt, Yxae, FAHe, LgDg, yOm, OGk, QbOeOk, saTK, MoL, DJYATP, gZj, HVaSlh, TUniOy, sjgOCl, mrIWY, RVIUN, JNKzA, UBx, hJon, APv, pnU, SGeucz, vgk, PiEN, xBXTVa, bGPnU, tcAj, Rme, PkdIL, vTAlKr, LswbEO, wif, UQJ, PlvBLU, ruIos, ZGrT, TKN, Aopz, WiupkU, FUZjII, UbCwr, aGimGQ, DaTIgz, cVmXv, xLhQQI, GXcwbe, vBaxN, FJetsl, Ovhm, iHDr, pbywal, MIfdv, hPT, EKv, uUMesv, qvgSnc, SvjgZw, CnP, NOrzB, Yspji, DMK, fFml, kxxZSi, Twknea, flTMy, tRuKsi, XLHPH, CBzhJ, fjdn, owZAe, sJXV, tQZEFP,
