Managing individual management boards and FPCs in HA mode

Managing individual management boards and FPCs in HA mode

In some cases, you may want to connect to the management board or an individual FPC in one of the FortiGate-6000s in an HA cluster.

Connecting to chassis 1

You can connect to the management board and individual FPCs in chassis 1 using the same special port numbers as for a standalone FortiGate-6000 (see FortiGate-6000 special management port numbers ).

Connecting to chassis 2

Different special port numbers are required to connect to the management board and individual FPCs in chassis 2. For the management board and for most FPCs, the special port number is the same as the special port number for chassis 1 with the number 2 as the second last digit. For example, if the management IP address is 1.1.1.1 you can browse to https://1.1.1.1:44323 to connect to the FPC in chassis 2 slot 3.

For the FPC in slot 10, include the number 30 as the second last and last digits. For example, to connect to the FPC in slot 10 browse to https://1.1.1.1:44330.
