Question

Link Aggregation for WAN?

Hello all. 

 

I have a single ISP that has brought in two fiber lines for me, both on the same subnet. Combined they should be 10Gbps, and are on my SPF+ ports on a Fortigate 100F firewall. 

I believe, if I understand correctly, that I shoulod use link aggregation to combine these into a single 802.3ad interface, and assign the SPF+ ports to it, then give them my static IP.

 

Am I on the right track?

I would assume the same but it's up to the ISP. You need to ask them what kind of setting on user side those two physical circuits are designed for. One of them could be just a back up. No idea until talk to the ISP.
