Changing FortiGate-5001SX jumper settings
12
The JP3 jumper on the FortiGate-5001SX module is factory set by Fortinet into
one of two positions (see
• For a FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050 chassis, the jumper connects pins 2
and 3
• For a FortiGate-5020 chassis, the jumper connects pins 1 and 2
The jumper must connect pins 2 and 3 if the chassis contains a shelf manager.
Both the FortiGate-5140 and the FortiGate-5050 contain shelf managers, and the
FortiGate-5020 does not.
If the JP3 jumper settings are incorrect, when you insert the FortiGate-5001SX
module into a chassis the module may not start up or may not be able to
communicate with the chassis shelf manager.
Normally, because the jumpers are factory set, you do not have to change them.
However, if you are moving a FortiGate-5001SX from a FortiGate-5140 or
FortiGate-5050 to a FortiGate-5020 or the reverse, you need to move the JP3
jumper.
Also, if a new FortiGate-5001SX module does not function properly, you should
check the JP3 jumper settings.
Table 3: FortiGate-5001SX JP3 jumper settings for each chassis
Chassis Correct JP3
Jumper Setting
FortiGate-5140 pins 2 and 3
FortiGate-5050 pins 2 and 3
FortiGate-5020 pins 1 and 2
Note: If the shelf manager in a FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050 chassis is missing or not
functioning, FortiGate-5001SX modules with JP3 jumper connecting pins 2 and 3 will not
start up. To operate FortiGate-5001SX modules in a FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050
chassis without a shelf manager, set the JP3 jumper to connect pins 1 and 2.
To change or verify the JP3 jumper setting
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate-5001SX module
• A tool for moving jumpers (optional)
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap with
connection cord
Caution: FortiGate-5001SX modules must be protected from static discharge and physical
!
shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001SX modules at a static-free workstation.
Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap when
handling FortiGate-5001SX modules.
1 Attach the ESD wrist or ankle strap to your wrist or ankle and to an ESD socket or
to a bare metal surface on a chassis or frame.
