In a FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050 chassis, FortiGate-5001SX base
backplane communication requires one or two FortiSwitch-5003 modules.
A FortiSwitch-5003 module installed in chassis slot 1 provides communication on
the port9 interface. A FortiSwitch-5003 module installed in chassis slot 2 provides
communication on the port10 interface. The FortiGate-5020 chassis supports
base backplane data communication for both interfaces with no additions or
changes to the chassis.
For details and configuration examples of FortiGate-5001SX base backplane
communication using the FortiSwitch-5003 module, see the
Backplane Communication
To enable base backplane data communication from the FortiGate-5001SX
web-based manager
From the FortiGate-5001SX web-based manager use the following steps to
enable base backplane data communication.
Go to System > Network > Interface.
Select Show backplane interfaces.
The port9 and port10 backplane interfaces now appear in the Interface list.
To enable base backplane data communication from the FortiGate-5001SX
CLI
From the FortiGate-5001SX module CLI you can use the following steps to enable
base backplane data communication.
Enter the following command to show the backplane interfaces:
config system global
set show-backplane-intf enable
end
The port9 and port10 backplane interfaces now appear in all Interface lists.
To avoid potential hardware problems, always shut down the FortiGate-5001SX
operating system properly before removing the FortiGate-5001SX module from a
chassis slot or before powering down the chassis.
To power off a FortiGate-5001SX module
Shut down the FortiGate-5001SX operating system:
• From the web-based manager, go to System > Status > System Operation,
select Shutdown and then select Go.
• From the CLI enter execute shutdown
Remove the FortiGate-5001SX module from the chassis slot.
Note: Once a shutdown operation is completed, the only way to restart the
FortiGate-5001SX module is to remove and reinsert it.
