Changing the heartbeat interface mode

By default, only the first heartbeat interface (usually B1) is used for heartbeat traffic. If this interface fails on any of the FortiControllers in a cluster, then the second heartbeat interface is used (B2).

You can use the following command to simultaneously use all heartbeat interfaces for heartbeat traffic:

config load-balance-setting

set base-mgmt-interface-mode active-active

end
