    1Gbps base backplane channel for base backplane communication with the FIM module(s) in the chassis. The FIM-7920E can be installed in any FortiGate-7000 series chassis in chassis hub/switch slots 1 or 2. The FIM-7920E provides four Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable 28 (QSFP28) 100GigE interfaces for a FortiGate-7000 chassis. Using a 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 or 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+ transceiver, each QSFP28 interface can also be split into four 10GBASE-SR SFP+ interfaces.

    Changing the interface type For example, to change the interface type of the C1 interface of the FIM-7920E in slot 1 to 40GE QSFP+ connect to the CLI of your FortiGate-7000 system using the management IP and enter the following command:...

  • Page 10: Splitting The C1 To C4 Interfaces

    You can use the front panel power button to turn the FIM-7920E power on or off. If the FIM-7920E is powered on, press the power switch to turn it off. If the FIM-7920E is turned off and installed in a chassis slot, press the power button to turn it on.

  • Page 11: Nmi Switch

    (NMI) switch to assist with troubleshooting. Pressing this switch causes the software to dump registers/backtraces to the console. After the data is dumped the FIM-7920E reboots. While the FIM-7920E is rebooting, traffic is temporarily blocked. The FIM-7920E should restart normally and traffic can resume once the it is up and running.

  • Page 12: Hardware Installation

    Installing QSFP28, QSFP+, SFP+, and SFP transceivers You must install QSFP28 or QSFP+, transceivers into the FIM-7920E front panel C1 to C4 fabric channel interfaces before connecting them to 100Gbps or 40Gbps networks (10Gbps networks if splitting one or more interfaces into 10GBASE-SR SFP+ interfaces).

  • Page 13: Installing The Optional Front Cable Management Bracket

    Using the front cable management bracket is optional, but if you decide to use the bracket it should be attached to the FortiGate-7000 chassis left and right cable management brackets. Install one front cable management bracket for each FIM-7920E after you have installed the FIM-7920E in your FortiGate-7000 chassis.

    (to open move the power slider up about 2 mm) The FIM-7920E module levers align the module in the chassis slot and insert and eject the module from the slot. The power sliders activate micro switches that turn on or turn off power to the module. When both sliders are raised, the module cannot receive power.

    Inserting a FIM-7920E module into a chassis This procedure describes how to insert a FIM-7920E module into slot 1 or 2 of a FortiGate-7000 chassis. The procedure includes photographs to illustrate the procedure steps. The photos were taken in one of Fortinet's hardware labs using a generic module and FortiGate-7000 chassis.
  • Page 16 Before sliding the final portion of the module into the chassis fully open both levers by pushing the power sliders up. Fully open both levers to avoid damaging the lever mechanism. Damaging the levers can prevent the module from connecting to power. Power slider Power slider Levers pop open FIM-7920E Processing Module Guide Fortinet Technologies Inc.
  • Page 17 The design of the levers leaves gaps to compensate for tolerances. So even when the levers are fully closed, the module may not be fully into position and in contact with the chassis backplane. Small gap between the module and the chassis when levers are closed.

    Shutting down and removing a FIM-7920E module from a chassis This procedure describes how to shut down and remove a FIM-7920E module from FortiGate-7000 chassis. The procedure includes photographs to illustrate the procedure steps. The photos were taken in one of Fortinet's hardware labs using a generic module and FortiGate-7000 chassis.
  • Page 20 Hardware installation Do not carry the FIM-7920E by holding the module levers or secure screws. When inserting or removing the FIM-7920E from a chassis slot, handle the module by the front panel. The levers are not designed for carrying the module. If the levers become bent or damaged, the FIM-7920E may not align correctly in the chassis slot.
  • Page 21 Do not use a power screwdriver, because the high torque and speed can damage the chassis or screw thread. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen both screws. Fully loosen both screws by hand. FIM-7920E Processing Module Guide Fortinet Technologies Inc.
  • Page 22 4. Unlock the left and right levers by pushing the power sliders up until the levers pop open. Push the power sliders up to fully open both levers. If the chassis is powered on, this step turns off the module’s power. Power slider Power slider Levers pop open FIM-7920E Processing Module Guide Fortinet Technologies Inc.

  • Page 24: Troubleshooting

    Firmware problem If the FIM-7920E is receiving power and the sliders and levers are fully closed, and you have restarted the chassis and the FIM-7920E still does not start up, the problem could be with FortiOS. Connect to the FIM-7920E console and try cycling the power to the board.

    CLI. You can connect to the GUI using HTTP or HTTPS, You can connect to the CLI using SSH or Telent or by a direct console connection to the FIM-7920E Console port. Use a terminal emulator with the following settings to connect to the console port: bits per second: 9600, data bits: 8, parity: none, stop bits: 1, flow control: none.
