What to use between dual-core switches
Point-to-point links are used between each element, and Fortinet recommends using the MCLAG and dual ICLs between the core switches. How about OSPF between the CORE switches and the firewall and advertise the default route to them? Have both CORE switches have a route via each link to the firewall and control the preferred path with OSPF cost. To establish a VSX relationship between the core switches, create a link aggregation (LAG) interface for assignment as the VSX data. The aggregation switches then send traffic from the aggregation layer to a core layer through up to 8x100-GbE links (towards two core switches) and then connect the core switches to the FortiGate devices for the core security services; the routing uses 100-Gbps links. Hence, the common. The layer 2 switches prevent over-crowding of data packets in transmission links and access devices. Further, the data packets are forwarded to the addressed group of.
