We have a FortiGate 40F with two WAN lines.

I know there are knowledge base articles on how to configure fail over without load balancing.

However how do I check how it is configured at this time?

What I want is fail over without load balancing.

Hi, there are multiple ways to configure the failover between the WAN interfaces. I am sharing a few knowledge-based articles.

You can check link monitor status to check if there is any existing config.
diagnose sys link-monitor status
