FortiGate30D Wan Port

[SeakleangHeng]

I have fortiGate 30D that have 5 ports (1WAN and 4 LAN ports). now i have two ISP, can i use LAN port to connect to ISP link as WAN port. because in fortigate 30D, it has WAN Link Load Balancing.

Thank in advanced

yes but you  have to undo the switch lan association

e.g

config sys global

    set internal-switch-mode interface

end

So lan ports1-4 wll be individual interfaces. The catch tho you need to remove all dependencies to the lan interface.

Also you have alternatives such as placing a switch between WAN1 and the 2 uplinks and tag one of the or both of the uplink providers.

@scuba1900:

@emnoc has already answered the question 4 weeks ago. Split the internal switch (ports1-4) into individual ports and then you can use any port for any purpose. Even WAN load balancing.
