Register and apply licenses to each worker before adding the worker to the SLBC cluster.
This includes FortiCloud activation, FortiClient, and FortiToken licensing, and entering a
license key if you purchased more than 10 Virtual Domains (VDOMS).
You can also install any third-party certificates on the primary worker before forming the
SLBC cluster. Once the cluster is formed third-party certificates are synchronized to all
workers.
You can connect to the FortiController-5913C GUI by browsing to the
FortiController-5913C mgmt interface IP address. From the FortiController-5913C GUI
you can add workers to the cluster and configure load balancing settings.
By default, you can connect to the FortiController-5913C GUI by browsing to
https://192.168.1.99.
You can connect to the FortiController-5913C CLI using the serial connector that came
packaged with your FortiController-5913C board or an Ethernet connection to the mgmt
interface.
To connect to the CLI over an Ethernet network use SSH to connect to the mgmt port
(default IP address 192.168.1.99).
To connect to the CLI using a serial console connection
1 Connect the FortiController-5913C unit's Console port to the serial communications
(COM) port on your management computer using a serial cable (or using an RS-232 to
USB convertor).
2 Start the terminal emulation application and configure the following settings.
• Bits per second: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None
3 Press Enter to connect to the CLI.
