Adding and Managing FortiGate Controllers

Adding and Managing FortiGate Controllers

You can import the FortiGate controllers from the FortiManager device database. In the ADOM mode, you can add FortiGate controllers managed by the particular ADOM and in the non-ADOM mode, you can add any controller managed by FortiManager. See section ADOM and Non-ADOM Modes. For details about adding model devices to FortiManager, see the FortiManager Administration Guide.

All FortiAPs and FortiSwitches managed by the imported controller are monitored by FortiAIOps. Navigate to Devices > FortiGate and in the Device (s) section.

To manually add a FortiGate controller, click Add and select the FortiGate controllers in Device Selection.

The added FortiGate controller is now listed.

You can also automatically import the FortiGate controllers from FortiManager. Click Auto Import and you can enable the automatic import of associated FortiGate controllers into all or selected ADOMs.

Select a device and click Delete to delete the selected controller from FortiAIOps.

You can import FortiGate clusters in FortiAIOps, the HA configuration (Active-Active/Active-Passive) is preserved and the HA Mode is displayed in the Device(s) panel.
