Installing the AMC Module

It is important to carefully seat the FortiGate ASM-FX2 module all the way into the chassis.
Only then will the FortiGate ASM-FX2 module power-on.
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate ASM-FX2 module.
• A FortiGate chassis with an empty AMC single-width (SW) opening.
• To avoid any electrostatic discharge, install in a static free area.
FortiGate ASM-FX2 modules are not hot swappable. The procedure for inserting the
FortiGate ASM-FX2 module into a FortiGate chassis slot requires the FortiGate unit to be
powered off.
To avoid any electrostatic discharge (ESD) when handling FortiGate ASM-FX2 modules,
install in a static free area.
To insert a FortiGate ASM-FX2 module into a FortiGate chassis
1. Ensure the FortiGate unit is powered off before proceeding.
2. Remove the panel block on the FortiGate unit using the hot swap latch.
3. Pull the latch on the ASM-FX2 module to the extended position.
4. Insert the ASM-FX2 module into the empty slot in the chassis. Ensure the Fortinet logo
is right-side up. It should be on the lower-right corner of the module.
5. Carefully guide the module into the chassis.
6. Insert the module by applying moderate force to the front faceplate near the upper edge
to slide the module into the slot.

Connecting the Module

When properly inserted into the FortiGate unit, the interfaces of the ASM-FX2 appear in the
interface list by going to System > Network > Interface.
You can add policies, zones and so on as you would with other FortiGate interfaces.
Enable the bridging feature of the module using the Command Line Interface.
The module is ready for removal.
