For example, to connect to the CLI of the FPC in slot 3 using SSH, you would connect to ssh://192.168.1.99:2203.
To verify which slot you have logged into, the GUI header banner and the CLI prompt shows the current hostname. The
System Information dashboard widget also shows the host name and serial number. The CLI prompt also shows slot
address in the format
<hostname> [<slot address>] #
.
Logging in to different FPCs allows you to use the FortiView or Monitor GUI pages to view the activity on that FPC. You
can also restart the FPC from its GUI or CLI. Even though you can log in to different FPCs, you can only make
configuration changes from the management board.
HA mode special management port numbers
In an HA configuration consisting of two FortiGate-6000s in an HA cluster, you can connect to individual FPCs or to the
management board in chassis 1 (chassis ID = 1) using the same special port numbers as for a standalone FortiGate-
6000.
You use different special port numbers to connect to individual FPCs or the management board in the FortiGate-6000
with chassis ID 2 (chassis ID = 2).
