FortiController-5913C

Basic Configuration

This section describes connecting and configuring a session-aware load balanced 
cluster (SLBC) consisting of a FortiController-5913C board installed in slot 1 and 2 or 
more workers installed in chassis slots 3 and up.

Before using this chapter, your chassis should be mounted and connected to your power 
system and the boards should be installed in the chassis. The chassis and the boards 
should also be powered up and the front panel LEDs should indicate that the boards are 
functioning normally.

This chapter includes the following topics: 

SLBC licensing

Connecting to the FortiController-5913C GUI

Connecting to the FortiController-5913C CLI

Factory default settings

Initial session-aware load balanced cluster setup

Upgrading cluster firmware

Verifying the configuration and the status of the boards in the cluster

SLBC licensing

This section describes some considerations when licensing an SLBC cluster.

FortiOS Carrier licensing

If the workers in an SLBC cluster will be running FortiOS Carrier, apply the FortiOS Carrier 
license before configuring the cluster (and before applying other licenses). Applying the 
FortiOS Carrier license sets the configuration to factory defaults, requiring you to repeat 
steps performed before applying the license.
