The network interfaces on the FortiGate unit. The names and number of
these interfaces vary by model.
The icon below the interface name indicates its up/down status by color.
Green indicates the interface is connected. Grey indicates there is no
connection.
For more information about the configuration and status of an interface,
pause the mouse over the icon for that interface. A tooltip displays the full
name of the interface, its alias if one is configured, the IP address and
netmask, the status of the link, the speed of the interface, and the number
of sent and received packets.

If your FortiGate unit supports Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) modules
and if you have installed an AMC module containing network interfaces (for
example, the ASM-FB4 contains 4 interfaces) these interfaces are added to
the interface status display. The interfaces are named for the module, and
the interface. For example AMC-SW1/3 is the third network interface on the
SW1 module, and AMC-DW2/1 is the first network interface on the DW2
module.
AMC modules support hard disks as well, such as the ASM-S08 module.
When a hard disk is installed, ASM-S08 is visible as well as a horizontal bar
and percentage indicating how full the hard disk is.
You can also add the ASM-CX4 and ASM-FX2 modules to bridge FortiGate
interfaces when the FortiGate unit is operating in transparent mode.
For more information about AMC modules, see “Configuring AMC modules”
on page 133.
