Changing FortiMail SW11 switch settings
The SW11 switch on the FortiMail board is factory set by Fortinet to detect a shelf
manager (
). This is the correct setting if you are installing the FortiMail board in a
chassis that contains an operating shelf manager (such as the FortiGate-5140 or
FortiGate-5050 chassis).
Figure 20: FortiGate-5140 and 5050 setting for SW11 (factory default shelf manager mode)
By default a FortiMail board will not start up if the board is installed in a chassis, such as a
FortiGate-5020, that does not contain a shelf manager or that contains a shelf manager
that is not operating. Before installing a FortiMail in a FortiGate-5020 chassis or a chassis
that does not contain an operating shelf manager you must change the SW11 switch
setting as shown in
Figure 21: FortiGate-5020 setting for SW11 (standalone mode)
In all cases you should confirm that you have the correct SW11 setting before installing
the board in a chassis.
To change or verify the SW11 switch setting
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiMail board
• A tool for changing the SW11 switch setting (optional)
