Accelerated packet forwarding and policy enforcement
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC Accelerated packet forwarding and policy enforcement
results in accelerated small packet performance required for voice, video, and
other multimedia streaming applications. The following traffic scenarios are
recommended for the accelerated interfaces:
• Small packet applications, such as voice over IP (VoIP).
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC accelerated interfaces provide wire speed
performance for small packet applications.
• Latency sensitive applications, such as multimedia.
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC accelerated interfaces add much less latency
than normal (non-accelerated) interfaces.

Base backplane gigabit communication FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system
• Session Oriented Traffic with long session lifetime, such as FTP sessions.
Packet size does not affect performance for traffic with long session lifetime.
For long sessions, processing that would otherwise be handled by the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC CPUs is off-loaded to the acceleration module.
• Firewall and intrusion protection (IPS), when there is a reasonable percentage
of P2P packets.
• Firewall, intrusion protection (IPS), and antivirus, when there is a reasonable
percentage of P2P packets.
• Firewall and IPSec VPN applications.
The following traffic scenarios should be handled by the normal (or non-
accelerated) FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC interfaces:
• Session oriented traffic when the session lifetime is very short.
• Firewall and antivirus only applications.
Traffic will not be off-loaded to the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC accelerator
module. The result will be high CPU usage because of the high CPU
requirement for antivirus scanning.
FA2 interfaces and active-active HA performance
FortiOS v3.0 MR4 firmware can also use FA2 acceleration to improve
active-active HA load balancing performance. See the FortiGate HA Overview or
the FortiGate HA Guide for more information.
Base backplane gigabit communication
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC port9 and port10 base backplane gigabit interfaces
can be used for HA heartbeat communication between FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC
boards installed in the same or in different FortiGate-5000 chassis. You can also
configure FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards to use the base backplane interfaces
for data communication between FortiGate boards. To support base backplane
communications your FortiGate-5140 or 5050 chassis must include one or more
FortiSwitch-5003 boards. FortiSwitch-5003 boards are installed in chassis slots 1
and 2. The FortiGate-5020 chassis supports base backplane communication with
no additions or changes to the chassis.
For information about base backplane communication in FortiGate-5140 and
FortiGate-5050 chassis, see the FortiGate-5000 Base Backplane Communication
Guide. For information about the FortiSwitch-5003 board, see the
FortiSwitch-5003 Guide.

4For cage slots 3 to 8, turn each SFP transceiver over before sliding it into the cage
slot until it locks into place.
Changing FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC jumper settings
The JP3 jumper on the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board is factory set by Fortinet
into one of two positions (see Figure 3 on page 12):
• For a FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050 chassis, the jumper connects pins 2
and 3
• For a FortiGate-5020 chassis, the jumper connects pins 1 and 2
The jumper must connect pins 2 and 3 if the chassis contains a shelf manager.
Both the FortiGate-5140 and the FortiGate-5050 contain shelf managers, and the
FortiGate-5020 does not.
If the JP3 jumper settings are incorrect, when you insert the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board into a chassis the board may not start up or may
not be able to communicate with the chassis shelf manager.
!
Caution: FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards must be protected from static discharge and
physical shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards at a static-free
workstation. Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap
when handling FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards.
!
Caution: Handling the SFP transceivers by holding the release Latch can damage the
connector. Do not force the SFP transceivers into the cage slots. If the transceiver does not
easily slide in and click into place, it may not be aligned correctly. If this happens, remove
the SFP transceiver, realign it and slide it in again.

Changing FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC jumper settings Hardware installation
Normally, because the jumpers are factory set, you do not have to change them.
However, if you are moving a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC from a FortiGate-5140 or
FortiGate-5050 to a FortiGate-5020 or the reverse, you need to move the JP3
jumper.
Also, if a new FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board does not function properly, you
should check the JP3 jumper settings.

5You can now insert the board into a chassis and verify that it is operating correctly.
For inserting instructions, see “Inserting a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board into a
chassis” on page 13.
Inserting a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board into a chassis
The following procedure describes how to correctly use the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC mounting components shown in Figure 4 to insert a
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board into a FortiGate-5000 series chassis slot.
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board left handle contacts to a hidden power
switch. The board must be fully installed in a chassis slot and this handle must be
closed and locked for the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board to receive power and
operate normally. If the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board is not receiving power,
the IPM LED glows blue and all other LEDs remain off.
It is important to carefully seat the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board all the way
into the chassis, to not use too much force on the handles, and to make sure that
the handles are properly locked and engaged with the hidden power switch. Only
then will the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board power-on and start up correctly.
!
Caution: FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards must be protected from static discharge and

FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC does not startup
Positioning of FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC handles, the presence or absence of a
functioning shelf manager, incorrect jumper settings and firmware problems may
all prevent a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board for starting up correctly. This section
describes how to find and fix each of these problems.

Figure 5: Location of FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC power switch
If the left handle is damaged or positioned incorrectly the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board does not receive power and will not start up.
Make sure the left handle is correctly aligned, fully inserted and locked.
Sometimes you may have to make small adjustments to the handle to achieve
contact with the switch.
FortiGate-5020 chassis: incorrect FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC
jumper settings
If the JP3 jumper on the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC circuit board is set to detect a
shelf manager, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board will not start up when inserted
into a FortiGate-5020 chassis. This occurs because the FortiGate-5020 chassis
does not have a shelf manager.
To fix the problem, remove the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board and check the
position of the JP3 jumper (see Figure 3 on page 12). Make sure the jumper
connects pins 1 and 2 (to the right when seen from the front of the board).
FortiGate-5140 or 5050 chassis: shelf manager not installed or
not functioning
If you are operating a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC in a FortiGate-5140 or 5050
chassis, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board will not start up if the JP3 jumper
connects pins 2 and 3 (see Figure 3 on page 12) and a shelf manager is not
installed or is not operating correctly.
If the shelf manager is not installed or not operating correctly, when you insert a
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board, the board attempts to communicate with the
shelf manager. If the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board cannot communicate with
the shelf manager, the board will not startup.
If a shelf manager is installed, make sure it is functioning normally (the Status LED
is green and all other LEDs are off). If the shelf manager is not functioning
normally, you can try removing it from the chassis and reinstalling it. If this does
not solve the problem, contact Fortinet Technical Support.
If the shelf manager has been removed from the chassis, you should re-install it. If
you are planning on operating the chassis without a shelf manager, you can move
the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC JP3 jumper between pins 1 and 2. The
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC should now start up.

Troubleshooting Hardware installation
All chassis: Firmware problem
If the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board power switch is connected and the JP3
jumper and shelf manager are set as required, and the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC
still does not start up, the problem could be with FortiOS. Connect to the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC console and try cycling the power to the board. If the
BIOS starts up, interrupt the BIOS startup and install a new firmware image. For
details about installing a new firmware image in this way, see the FortiGate-5000
Series Firmware and FortiUSB Guide.
If this does not solve the problem, contact Fortinet Technical Support.
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC cannot display chassis information
If the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board is installed in a FortiGate-5140 or 5050
chassis, if a shelf manager is operating in the chassis, and if the JP3 jumper is set
between pins 2 and 3, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board should be able to
communicate with the chassis shelf manager.
If the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board can communicate with the shelf manager,
the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC web-based manager System > Chassis pages
should display information about the boards installed in the chassis. If any one of
the conditions listed above are not met, theFortiGate-5001FA2-LENC web-based
manager system chassis pages will not display chassis information.
If all of the above conditions are met, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC
System > Chassis > Blades list displays a list of all of the boards installed in the
chassis. If any of the other FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards in the chassis have
the JP3 jumper between pins 1 and 2, these slots will appear empty. Figure 6
shows the blades list for a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board installed in slot 3 of a
FortiGate-5050 chassis. The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards in slots 3 and 4
are called node cards. The FortiGate-5003 board in slot 2 is called a switch card.

Planning the configuration Quick Configuration Guide
Planning the configuration
Before beginning to configure your FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system,
you need to plan how to integrate the system into your network. Your configuration
plan depends on the operating mode that you select: NAT/Route mode (the
default) or Transparent mode.
NAT/Route mode
In NAT/Route mode, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system is visible to
the networks that it is connected to. Each interface connected to a network must
be configured with an IP address that is valid for that network. In many
configurations, in NAT/Route mode all of the FortiGate interfaces are on different
networks, and each network is on a separate subnet.
You would typically use NAT/Route mode when the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC
security system is deployed as a gateway between private and public networks. In
the default NAT/Route mode configuration, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security
system functions as a firewall. Firewall policies control communications through
the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system. No traffic can pass through the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system until you add firewall policies.
In NAT/Route mode, firewall policies can operate in NAT mode or in Route mode.
In NAT mode, the FortiGate firewall performs network address translation before
IP packets are sent to the destination network. In Route mode, no translation
takes place.

Transparent mode
In Transparent mode, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system is invisible to
the network. All of the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC interfaces are connected to
different segments of the same network. In Transparent mode you only have to
configure a management IP address so that you can connect to the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system to make configuration changes and so
the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system can connect to external services
such as the FortiGuard Distribution Network (FDN).
Figure 8: Example FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board operating in Transparent mode
You would typically deploy a FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system in
Transparent mode on a private network behind an existing firewall or behind a
router. In the default Transparent mode configuration, the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system functions as a firewall. No traffic can
pass through the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system until you add firewall
policies.
Choosing the configuration tool
You can use either the web-based manager or the Command Line Interface (CLI)
to configure the FortiGate board.
Web-based manager
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC web-based manager is an easy to use
management tool. Use the web-based manager to configure the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC administrator password, the interface addresses, the
default gateway, and the DNS server addresses.
Requirements:
• An Ethernet connection between the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board and
management computer.
• Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher on the management computer.

Upgrading FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC firmware
Fortinet periodically updates the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC FortiOS firmware to
include enhancements and address issues. After you have registered your
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system (see “Registering your Fortinet
product” on page 21) you can download FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC firmware from
the support web site http://support.fortinet.com.
Only FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC administrators (whose access profiles contain
system read and write privileges) and the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC admin user
can change the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC firmware.
For complete details about upgrading and downgrading
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC firmware using the web-based manager or CLI; and
using a USB key, see the FortiGate-5000 Series Firmware and FortiUSB Guide.

5Type the path and filename of the firmware image file, or select Browse and locate
the file.
6Select OK.
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board uploads the firmware image file, upgrades
to the new firmware version, restarts, and displays the FortiGate login. This
process takes a few minutes.
7Log into the web-based manager.
8Go to System > Status and check the Firmware Version to confirm the firmware
upgrade is successfully installed.
9Update the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC antivirus and attack definitions. See the

5Enter the following command to copy the firmware image from the TFTP server to
the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board:
execute restore image <name_str> <tftp_ipv4>
Where <name_str> is the name of the firmware image file and <tftp_ipv4> is
the IP address of the TFTP server. For example, if the firmware image file name is
image.out and the IP address of the TFTP server is 192.168.1.168, enter:
execute restore image image.out 192.168.1.168
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board responds with the message:
This operation will replace the current firmware version!
Do you want to continue? (y/n)
6Type y.
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board uploads the firmware image file, upgrades to
the new firmware version, and restarts. This process takes a few minutes.
7Reconnect to the CLI.
8To confirm the firmware image is successfully installed, enter:
get system status
9Update antivirus and attack definitions. You can use the command
execute update-now
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC base backplane data communication
You can configure the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards for data communications
using the two FortiGate-5140, FortiGate-5050, or FortiGate-5020 chassis base
backplane interfaces.
By default the base backplane interfaces are used for HA heartbeat
communication. However, using the information in this section, you can configure
the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC to also use the base backplane interfaces for data
communication. Once the base backplane interfaces are configured for data
communication you can operate and configure them in the same way as any
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC interface.
Although not recommended, you can use base backplane interfaces for data
communication and HA heartbeat communication at the same time.
Note: Different FortiGate-5000 series boards may use different names for the base
backplane interfaces. For example, on the FortiGate-5001SX and FortiGate-5001FA2
boards the base backplane interfaces are called port9 and port10. On the
FortiGate-5005FA2 and FortiGate-5001A boards the base backplane interfaces are called
base1 and base2.
Note: VLAN communication over the backplane is only available for FortiGate-5005FA2
boards installed in a FortiGate-5020 chassis. The FortiSwitch-5003 does not support
VLAN-tagged packets so VLAN communication is not available over the FortiGate-5050
and FortiGate-5140 chassis backplanes.

FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC Security System Guide
01-30000-76602-20080606 31
In a FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050 chassis, FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC base
backplane communication requires one or two FortiSwitch-5003 boards.
A FortiSwitch-5003 board installed in chassis slot 1 provides communication on
the port9 interface. A FortiSwitch-5003 board 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-5001FA2-LENC base
backplane communication using the FortiSwitch-5003 board, see the FortiGate-
5000 Base Backplane Communication Guide.
To enable base backplane data communication from the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC web-based manager
From the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC web-based manager use the following steps
to enable base backplane data communication.
1Go to System > Network > Interface.
2Select Show backplane interfaces.
The port9 and port10 backplane interfaces now appear in the Interface list.
Figure 9: FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC interface list with backplane interfaces enabled
To enable base backplane data communication from the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC CLI
From the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board CLI you can use the following steps to
enable base backplane data communication.
1Enter 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.
