attach the new ENI without powering off the devices ?

[dsouhe]

We have FortiGate-VM (VM04 / c4.xlarge) in Amazon Web Services (AWS) and configures two elastic network interfaces (ENIs). Now, we wants to add additional ENIs to support network in our environment.

Do I need to Create the ENI, shut down FortiGate, attach the ENI to FortiGate, and then start FortiGate? or can i just attach the new ENI without powering off the devices ?

In AWS you can just create the new NIC and attach it to the VM, without turning off the VM.
