Problems configuring HA on Fortigate 40C on Firmware 4.0 MR3

Hello!

I'm having difficulties configuring HA on a FGT 40C on 4.0 MR3 firmware, every time a select Active-passive it reverts back to standalone. Even on CLI "set mode" does not exist. Anyone knows why? How can i configure HA if i can't change the mode?

Thanks.

    Have you checked if any of your interfaces are getting their IP addresses via DHCP? FortiOS 4.3 doesn't support HA when an interface has DHCP enabled.

    Thanks for answering neonbit. One of my interfaces is a PPPOE connection, the rest is static assigned and port 5 has a DHCP service running:

     

    config system interface edit "wan1" set vdom "root" set ip 10.252.27.2 255.255.255.252 set allowaccess ping https ssh snmp fgfm set type physical set description "Conexão com o router CISCO da Embratel." set alias "Embratel 512Kbps" next edit "wan2" set vdom "root" set mode pppoe set allowaccess ping https ssh snmp fgfm set type physical set description "Conexão com o modem de internet da loja." set alias "AméricaNET 30Mbps" set username "xxxxxx" set password ENC xxxx set defaultgw enable set dns-server-override disable next edit "modem" set vdom "root" set mode pppoe set type physical next edit "ssl.root" set vdom "root" set type tunnel next edit "internal1" set vdom "root" set ip 10.12.27.254 255.255.255.0 set allowaccess ping https ssh snmp fgfm set type physical set description "Conexão com o SWITCH da loja." set alias "Rede Interna" next edit "internal2" set vdom "root" set status down set type physical set description "Conexão sem uso." set alias "Reservado" next edit "internal3" set vdom "root" set type physical set description "Conexão sem uso." set alias "Reservado" next edit "internal4" set vdom "root" set status down set type physical set description "Conexão sem uso." set alias "Reservado" next edit "internal5" set vdom "root" set ip 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 set allowaccess ping https ssh snmp fgfm set type physical set description "Conexão com o AP/roteador WIFI da loja." set alias "Rede WIFI" next edit "VPN_HERVAL" set vdom "root" set type tunnel set interface "wan2" next end

     

    I will deactivate PPPOE on that interface and try again as soon as i can.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you neonbit, with your help i did it. But unfortunately i need PPPOE on wan2 to authenticate my internet connection. Would it work with PPPOE on v5 perhaps? I'm going to try it.
