An active-passive (A-P) HA cluster, also referred to as hot standby HA, consists of a
primary FortiGate unit that processes traffic, and one or more subordinate FortiGate
units. The subordinate FortiGate units are connected to the network and to the
primary FortiGate unit but do not process traffic.
Active-active (A-A) HA load balances network traffic all the FortiGate units in the
cluster. An active-active HA cluster consists of a primary FortiGate unit that processes
traffic and one or more subordinate units that also process traffic. The primary
FortiGate unit uses a load balancing algorithm to distribute virus scanning to all the
FortiGate units in the HA cluster.
By default the FortiGate unit load balances virus scanning among all of the FortiGate
units in the cluster. Using the CLI, you can configure the FortiGate unit to load balance
all network traffic among the FortiGate units in the cluster. See the
FortiGate CLI
Reference Guide
for more information.
For more information about FortiGate HA and the FGCP, see the
FortiGate High
Availability Guide
