Figure 21: FortiSwitch-5003A front panel
• One front panel base backplane 10-gigabit optical or copper SFP+ interface
(BASE 10G) that connects to the base backplane channel
• Eight front panel fabric backplane 10-gigabit optical or copper SFP+ interfaces
(14/F8, F7, F6, F5, F4, F3, F2, and F1)
• One gigabit out of band management ethernet interface (MGMT)
• One RJ-45, RS-232 serial console connection (COM)
• Mounting hardware
• LED status indicators
• IEEE 802.1q VLANs
• IEEE 802.3ad static mode layer-2 link aggregation
• Link aggregation using a hash algorithm based on source and destination IP
addresses
• Multi-Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) (IEEE 802.1s) to support redundant
FortiSwitch-5003A boards and external MSTP-compatible switches
• Heartbeat between FortiGate-5001A and FortiGate-5005FA2 boards and the
FortiSwitch-5003A over the fabric channel to support MSTP (configurable from
the FortiGate-5001A and FortiGate-5005FA2 systems)
• Standard FortiOS command line interface (CLI) for configuring fabric switch
settings (VLANs, MSTP, trunks, and so on)
Front panel LEDs and connectors
From the FortiSwitch-5003A font panel you can view the status of the board LEDs
to verify that the board is functioning normally. The front panel includes a reset
switch for restarting the FortiSwitch-5003A board.
The front panel also contains connectors to the fabric and base channels, an out
of band management ethernet interface, and an RJ-45 RS-232 console port for
connecting to the FortiSwitch-5003A CLI.
