Description

 

HA Active-Active mode scenario:

It is a requirement to set HA so that one FortiGate will handle more traffic then the other FortiGate.

 

For example, the Primary unit carrying more of the load than the subordinate unit.

 

Note.

This only applies to antivirus scanned sessions.

 

On the Primary unit CLI, enter the following command:

 

# config sys ha

    set schedule weighted-round robin

    set weight 3 1

end

 

The Primary unit will carry three times the amount of the session traffic than the subordinate unit in HA active-active mode.

 

To reverse this, use a weight of '1 3', or any other desired combination.
