Create a new Internet gateway, and attach it to your VPC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Create a new public route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Edit the public route, and add a new default route to your internet gateway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Associate both public and HAmgmt subnet into the public route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Create a new key pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Create a new bucket, and leave the settings by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go to CloudFormation on AWS, click to create a new stack to deploy FortiGate HA.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Upload the template into this stack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Enter your stack name, VPCID, VPCCIDR, and link public, private, sync, HAmgmt to corresponding subnets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Will choose the minimize instance type for the lab is c5.xlarge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Click Next and accept the settings by default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Click create stack. It will take a couple of minutes to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Output, copy all information to notepad to keep track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
There are three Elastic IP addresses that have been created on your VPC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
This is a master FG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
It will link to a default Security Group that has been created when creating a stack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Wait until both FGs are checked passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Access the Primary HA FG via cluster IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Both access rules have been automatically created when creating a stack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Access the FG1, FG2  via mgmt IP address. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Check HA status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
FG1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
On FG2, there is only an elastic IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Update the Elastic IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Notes Network interface ID of FortiGate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Edit and add a new route on the private subnet route to route all traffic on the subnet to network interface of the master FG<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
On FG2, open the console and type the command below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
diagnose debug application awsd -1\ndiagnose debug enable<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
On FG1, click instance state and stop the instance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The Cluster IP address has been successfully moved to FG2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
On S3 bucket, we can see there are two config files for FG1 and FG2 have been created when installing a stack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
It only supports unicast for a heartbeat on AWS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Refresh the cluster IP management access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
FG2 has become the Primary for HA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The route has been updated to use a private network instance on FG2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Also, we can see all interfaces have been disabled for “Change source\/destination check”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
To terminate the lab, go to stack and delete the stack that has been created for the lab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
