Question

Creating 802.3 aggregate

Hi all,

 

i have a Fortigate 200b, firmware 5.2.5

I would like to create an aggregate using 3 Ports, but i want first to clarify some doubts.

 

1) I want to start using 2 Network Ports, then add a third one later: is this possible?

 

2) At the moment i have only 1 port available. The second port - port 13 -  is bound to a Local-in policy (see attachment).

Question is: how can i deassociate this port from the policy?

 

Thanks in advance to all

    1st you have to find everything associated to that port.

     

    ( cli )

     

     diag sys checkused system.interface.name port13

     

    ( web)

     

    just click on the reference item tabs

     

    Now,

    delete and undo all items and then you can build a AE interface  with the 2x ports in the Aggregate Ethernet.

    Hi Emnoc,

     

    thanks for the answer.

    I have succesfully created the aggregate with 2 ports (port 13 and port 14).

     

    Now  i want to ad port 9 to the aggregate.

    When i go into the menu (clicking "edit") i don't have the option to add further ports.

    Question: may i add additional ports to the aggregate in a second time?

     

    Thank you

    Hi,

     

    LACP on a 200B will not be possible with ports 13,14 and 9. This is due to the NP2 chip which drives ports 13-16. You can only add Port 15 and 16 to this aggregate!
