Configuring high availability

Configuring high availability

FortiIsolator supports high availability and A-A clustering. You can deploy devices in a cluster, and distribute traffic using Round Robin or Weighted Round Robin load balancing. You can use the FortiIsolator UI or FortiIsolator CLI to configure high availability.

FortiIsolator UI

To configure high availability, go to System > HA.

FortiIsolator CLI

To configure high availability, use the following CLI commands:

ha-enabled 0/1

ha-group-id [1-255]

ha-lost-threshold [1-60]

ha-interval [1-20]

in unit of 100ms

ha-hello-holddown [5-300]

in unit of seconds

ha-priority [0-255]

255 means not used

ha-allow-override 0/1

ha-schedule <schedule type>

ha-virtual-ip <IP/netmask>

e.g. 192.168.100.2/24

ha-password <PASSWORD>

ha-password-enc <Encoded PASSWORD>

ha-interface <Interface Name >

e.g. internal/external/mgmt

After you enable or disable high availability, you must restart FortiIsolator.
