Updating service connection priorities

Updating service connection priorities

When you configure the hub selection method as hub health and priority within each point of presence (PoP), FortiSASE selects the highest priority hub that meets minimum SLA requirements. You can assign a hub a different priority level in different PoPs using the Update Service Connection Priorities page. A lower numerical cost value indicates a higher priority for a hub and vice-versa.

To update hub priorities:
  1. Go to Network > Secure Private Access. On the Service Connections tab, click Update Service Connection Priorities.
  2. From the Security PoP dropdown list, select the desired PoP hub. The example selects the San Jose – California – USA security PoP.

  3. Select the desired hub and do one of the following to set the priority:
    1. From the Set Priority dropdown list, select the desired priority. P1 is the highest priority, and P2 is the lowest priority.
    2. Right-click the hub, select Set Priority, and select the desired priority. P1 is the highest priority, and P2 is the lowest priority.
  4. Set the priority for each hub that will influence hub selection. The example modifies hub priorities so that DC1 has a priority of P2 and DC2 has a priority of P1:

  5. Click Apply to save the updated priority values. The page sorts the hubs from highest to lowest priority:

  6. (Optional) Repeat the steps to update hub priorities for other security PoPs.
