Use the following command from the FortiController-5913C CLI to verify that the

FortiController-5913C board can communicate with all of the workers in the cluster and

to show the status of each board. For example, for the cluster shown in

page 25

the command output would be the following if the cluster is operating properly:

get load-balance status

ELBC Master Blade: slot-4

Confsync Master Blade: slot-4

Blades:

Working:

3 [

3 Active

Ready:

0 [

0 Active

Dead:

0 Active

Total:

Slot

4: Status:Working

Link:

Base: Up

Heartbeat: Managment: Good

Status Message:"Running"

Slot

6: Status:Working

Link:

Base: Up

Heartbeat: Managment: Good

Status Message:"Running"

Slot

8: Status:Working

Link:

Base: Up

Heartbeat: Managment: Good

Status Message:"Running"

The command output provides the same information as the Load Balance > Status

web-based manager page, including the slot that contains the primary unit (slot 4), the

number of workers in the cluster, the slots containing all of the workers (4, 6, and 8) and

the status of each board. Status information includes the status of the connection

between the board and the base and fabric backplanes, whether the heartbeat is active,

the status of the board and the data processed by the board. The status message can

also indicate if the board is waiting for a fabric connection or waiting for a base

connection.

You can also use the following commands to display detailed session aware load

balancing diagnostics:

diangnose salb {dp | tcam-rules}

The dp option provides diagnostics for the FortiASIC DP processors and the

tcam-rules option provides diagnostics for content aware routing rules (TCAM).
