VDOM Failover Configuration for FortiGate Firewalls

Hello Fortinet Community,

I am currently working on configuring a FortiGate firewall setup and need some confirmation with VDOM failover configuration. Here’s the scenario I am working with:

  - Firewall 1 (Fw1): VDOM A and VDOM B are configured as active.

  - Firewall 2 (Fw2): VDOM A and VDOM B are configured as passive.

  - Conversely, VDOM C is active on Fw2 and passive on Fw1.

Is it possible to set up the VDOMs in this way, with Fw1 having active VDOM A and B while Fw2 is passive, and the opposite configuration for VDOM C?

Hi,

 

You can do this by using virtual cluster feature in HA.

 

Here's the documentation link:
