Additional configuration Quick Configuration Guide
If you are using the FortiSwitch-5003A system for link aggregation or just to pass
VLANs you need to use the config switch fabric-channel command. This
command has 4 keywords:
• interface to add VLANs to interfaces and other settings
• physical-port to enable listening for heartbeats from FortiGate-5000 units
on the fabric channel and to configure interfaces to be up or down
• stp to configure MTSP
• trunk to aggregate FortiSwitch-5003A fabric interfaces
See “Layer-2 link aggregation and redundancy configurations” on page 12 for
some examples of using these commands. See also the FortiGate-5000
Backplane Guide for a complete FortiSwitch-5003A CLI reference as well as
example FortiSwitch-5003A configurations.
