Fortigate update using which link?
Hello,
I have Fortigate 100E with dedicated management port. I would like to know when firewall update. For example, download signature definition. Which interface will be used? Management port or WAN port?
Thanks!

Hi,
the FortiGate automatically chooses the best interface. You can force the communication with the following command (for FortiGuard service updates):
config system fortiguard
set source-ip x.x.x.x
end
Verify the configuration with:
get system source-ip status

Hello,
I have read following as well but still not sure which x.x.x.x I should setup.
Now my mgmt port IP is 192.168.10.100
and
WAN IP is 192.168.200.200
which they are in different VDOM
If I want using mgmt port, then I should setup like this?
set source-ip 192.168.10.100
Thanks!

If you have different VDOMs it's another situation. You need to be sure that the mgmt port is in the VDOM declared as the management VDOM. The management VDOM can be set in the GUI under Global > System > VDOM

Yup, you can define a certain VDOM as the management VDOM and that is the one that FortiGuard services will default to. If you don't have VDOM's then the only logical instance of the Gate will be the source.
