Fortigate HA

Hello,

 

We have 2 Virtual Fortigate deployed on ESXi with 2 trial licenses (provided by Fortigate) and I'm trying to configure Active-Standby Failover. Also we have Out of Band Mgmt (added one interface to another VRF and added one default route). When I'm activating HA on firelwalls, Fortigate do reboot and after that I lose access to the web. I have access just via ESXi console. 

 

How I can fix it?

Even if I remove VRF still after HA configuration I'm loosing access to the firewalls.
