FGCP to SLBC migration

FGCP to SLBC migration

This section descries how to convert a FortiGate Clustering Protocol (FGCP) virtual cluster (with VDOMs) to an SLBC cluster. The conversion involves replicating the VDOM, interface and VLAN configuration of the FGCP cluster on the SLBC cluster primary worker then backing up the configuration of each FGCP cluster VDOM. Each of the VDOM configuration files is manually edited to adjust interface names among other things. Then these modified VDOM configuration files are restored to the corresponding SLBC cluster primary worker VDOMs.

Only VDOM configurations are migrated. You have to manually configure primary worker management and global settings.

This section describes general conversion steps and does not include configuration specifics, CLI syntax, or GUI procedures.
