You can configure HA options for a FortiGate unit with virtual domains (VDOMs) enabled
by logging into the web-based manager as the global admin administrator and then going
to
System > Config > HA
.
Note:
FortiGate HA is not compatible with PPP protocols such as PPPoE. FortiGate HA is
also not compatible with DHCP. If one or more FortiGate unit interfaces is dynamically
configured using DHCP or PPPoE you cannot switch to operate in HA mode. Also, you
cannot switch to operate in HA mode if one or more FortiGate unit interfaces is configured
as a PPTP or L2TP client or if the FortiGate unit is configured for standalone session
synchronization.
Note:
If your FortiGate cluster uses virtual domains, you are configuring HA virtual
clustering. Most virtual cluster HA options are the same as normal HA options. However,
virtual clusters include VDOM partitioning options. Other differences between configuration
options for regular HA and for virtual clustering HA are described below and in the
