Configuring AMC modules
Most FortiGate models with AMC slots have one single-width or dual width AMC slot. The
FortiGate-3810A has two single-width and two dual width AMC slots.
By default, FortiGate units automatically recognize the AMC modules installed in their
AMC slots or automatically recognize that an AMC slot is empty. If the module contains
interfaces, FortiOS automatically adds the interfaces to the FortiGate configuration. If the
module contains a hard disk, the hard disk is automatically added to the configuration.
However, when the FortiGate unit is powered down and the module removed from the
slot, when the FortiGate unit restarts it automatically recognizes that the slot is empty and
will not retain any configuration settings for the missing module.
This default behavior is usually acceptable in most cases. However, it can be useful when
a module is present in a slot to add the name of the module to the FortiGate configuration.
Then, if the module fails or if you temporarily remove it from the slot, the FortiGate unit
keeps the module’s configuration settings so that when the module is replaced you will not
have to re-configure it.
If you have added the name of a module to a slot and you are planning or removing the
module and replacing it with a different type of module (for example, if you are removing a
FortiGate-ASM-S08 and replacing it with a FortiGate-ASM-FX2) you should reset the slot
to the default before removing the module. Then after adding the new module you should
add its name to the slot.
You configure AMC slot settings from the FortiGate CLI using the config system amc
command. For information about this command, see the FortiGate CLI Reference.
To change the default setting for an AMC slot
The following procedure shows how to add a FortiGate-ADM-FB8 to the first double-width
AMC slot (dw1) and how to add the name of the module to the slot configuration.
1 Enter the following CLI command to verify that the slot that you will insert the
FortiGate-ADM-FB8 module into is set to the default configuration.
This command lists the AMC slots and the settings for each one. Example command
output for a FortiGate-5001A with an empty double-width AMC slot:
get system amc
dw1 : auto
2 Power down the FortiGate unit.
3 Insert the FortiGate-ADM-FB8 module into the double-width AMC slot.
