Access slave firewall in HA

Hi

 

Im running fortiOS 5.4.2 and when i try to access the slave fw running the command "execute ha managament <slave id>" it promps for login credentials. My admin credentials dont work there for some reason.

If i reboot the master and the slave now becomes master, same things happens.

 

In other HA deployments i can access the slave directly with the cli command, no login promt

 

Maybe a feature from 5.4.2?

 

Thanks

Carlos

Probably a stupid question but the user you're using has a super_admin profile?

1: caps locks

 

2:  ensure the  slave is correct   ( id # ) 

 

3: as suggested before the account you login on has to be super_admin accessprofile

Hi

 

I had a @ in my password, after changing it I now can login to the slave through cli

 

But in 5.2 i didnt had to type in my credentials when changing from master to slave. Is this new in 5.4?

 

Thanks for your help

 

Carlos
