Technical Tip: Static routing configuration section is not synchronized in HA public cloud environments

[abarushka]

Description
In FortiGate HA public cloud environments (i.e. Azure) static routing configuration section below is not synchronized between HA peers (primary and secondary units).

This article describes this feature.

Solution
1) From the GUI.

Go to  Network -> Static Routes.

From CLI:

# config router static
    edit 1
        set gateway 172.26.48.1
        set device "port1"
    next
    edit 2
        set dst 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.255
        set gateway 10.0.1.1
        set device "port2"
    next
end

Therefore, it is necessary to configure static routing configuration on both HA (primary and secondary) units manually.
