Hi, I'm not sure if I'm on the correct category but here's my question. I would like to perform HA using 2x Fortigate 200D. I've read an article about HA:

 

http://cookbook.fortinet.com/high-availability-two-fortigates/

 

But I'm not sure if this will apply with 200D? and just want to confirm with the article, the requirement is at least version 5.x.x OS/firmware?

 

Thanks

Jeff

    The HA feature is independent of the hardware used, and universally available from FortiOS v2.xx on to the latest v5.2.5. All steps described apply to your setup as well.

    Make sure that you take a backup before connecting the units, so that you have a way back.

    Thanks ede for the input. Will do backup before I cluster both.

    Thanks
