To monitor a FortiGate unit for failure, you configure the FortiBridge unit to send
probe packets through the FortiGate unit. Using probe packets, the FortiBridge
unit can confirm that the FortiGate unit can process ICMP (ping), HTTP, FTP,
POP3, SMTP, and IMAP traffic. Until you configure probes, the FortiBridge unit
cannot detect if the FortiGate unit has failed.
