Group ID
The group ID range is from 0 to 63. All members of the HA cluster must have the
same group ID.
When the FortiGate units in the cluster are switched to HA mode, all of the interfaces
of all of the units in the cluster acquire the same virtual MAC address. This virtual
MAC address is set according to the group ID.
Table 3 lists the virtual MAC address
set for each group ID.
If you have more than one HA cluster on the same network, each cluster should have
a different group ID. If two clusters on the same network have the same group ID, the
duplicate MAC addresses cause addressing conflicts on the network.
Unit Priority
Optionally set the unit priority of the cluster unit. Each cluster unit can have a different
unit priority (the unit priority is not synchronized among cluster members). During HA
negotiation, the unit with the highest unit priority becomes the primary cluster unit. The
unit priority range is 0 to 255. The default unit priority is 128.
You can use the unit priority to control the order in which cluster units become the
primary cluster unit when a cluster unit fails. For example, if you have three
FortiGate-3600s in a cluster you can set the unit priorities as shown in
Table 4 . Cluster
unit A will always be the primary cluster unit because it has the highest priority. If
cluster unit A fails, cluster unit B becomes the primary cluster unit because cluster unit
B has a higher unit priority than cluster unit C.
The unit priority is not synchronized to all cluster units. Each cluster unit can have a
different unit priority.
In a functioning cluster, if you change the unit priority of the current primary cluster unit
to a lower priority, when the cluster renegotiates a different cluster unit becomes the
primary cluster unit.
