Description |
This article describes how to add a secondary SNMP server on VDOM-enabled FortiGate and FortiGate is on HA. |
Scope | FortiGate v7.2.0. |
Solution |
Suppose that interface ‘mgmt’ is a management interface for Primary FortiGate with:
IP 10.10.10.2/24 Interface port1 with IP 10.1.248.250/24
Both interface 'mgmt' and 'port1' are part of root VDOM
If VDOM is enabled on the FortiGate on HA, there are two options to configure SNMP.
Option 1: Enable ha-direct. Option 2: Without enabling ha-direct.
Note: In both scenarios, SNMP must be enabled on the root VDOM.
Option 1: Enable ha-direct. Management IP configured for HA will be used as a source/destination IP address. For the secondary SNMP server, it is possible to enable ha-direct too, then the interface IP address will be used as a source destination IP.

Option 2: Without enabling ha-direct. Interface IP except HA management IP can be used as a source/destination IP address.
