Hi,

which are the parts of the configuration that the fortigate does not synchronize in the HA Active-Passive?

for example, are the ip of the interfaces synchronized?

 

Thanks

Hello @DanieleS99 

 

The following settings are not synchronized between cluster units:

- The FortiGate host name
- GUI Dashboard widgets
- HA override
- HA device priority
- The virtual cluster priority
- The HA priority setting for a ping server (or dead gateway detection) configuration
- The system interface settings of the HA reserved management interface
- The HA default route for the reserved management interface, set using the ha-mgmt-interface-gateway option of the config system ha command

 

Please refer to the below link for details.
