Once you click save on the previous slide you will then be brought back to the main interface page where you will see that you VLAN is created.
Firewall Configuration
In the up front Firewall I have sub interfaces created with a x.x.x.1 IP associated to each VLAN.
Firewall Ping Test
From the up front firewall we are able to ping the VLAN interface on the FortiBalancer.
FortiBalancer Ping Test
In this ping test I pinged the IP Address of the Firewall on VLAN 10.
