Description | This article describes how to resolve an HA sync issue due to 'set speed auto' in the 'config system interface' configuration. |
Scope | FortiGate. |
Solution |
The below output shows that the cluster is out of sync due to a 'system.interface' checksum mismatch:
diagnose system ha checksum show global
The interface configuration for port1 between the primary and secondary devices differs, as the default setting of 'set speed auto' is visible on the primary device:
show system interface port1 Next
The 'set speed auto' is the default setting and should not be displayed using the 'show system interface port1' command. However, on the secondary HA cluster member, the 'set speed auto' command is not displayed:
show system interface port1
This difference in configuration will make the system worse. The interface object is different, which results in a sync issue.
The solution for this issue is as follows:
diagnose system ha checksum recalculate
After recalculating the checksum, the issue should be resolved, and both devices will be in synchronization again.
If the issue is still not resolved, verify the configuration of other objects whose checksum is different. Refer to the article below to compare the checksum. Technical Tip: Troubleshooting a checksum mismatch in a FortiGate HA cluster |
