Configuring VRRP To configure VRRP you must configure two or more FortiGate interfaces or routers with the same virtual router ID and IP address. Then these FortiGate units or routers can automatically join the same VRRP group. You must also assign priorities to each of the FortiGate units or […]

IPv6 in dynamic routing Unless otherwise stated, routing protocols apply to IPv4 addressing. This is the standard address format used. However, IPv6 is becoming more popular and new versions of the dynamic routing protocols have been introduced. Dynamic routing supports IPv6 on your FortiGate unit. The new versions of these […]
Dynamic routing terminology Dynamic routing is a complex subject. There are many routers on different networks and all can be configured differently. It become even more complicated when you add to this each routing protocol having slightly different names for similar features, and many configurable features for each protocol. To […]
