Description

A Terraform script to deploy an Active-Passive (A-P) HA cluster in a single zone. This template makes use of the FortiGate IBM SDN connector to failover in the event of a VM shutdown. After the active VM is back up, it will take over as active once again.

Requirements

• Terraform 0.13+
• Two FortiOS 7.0 BYOL Licenses.
• A VPC with four subnets in a single zone
• A configured IBM SSH key
• A security group

Deployment overview

Note: For a local deployment, a Gen 2 API key will be needed. For details see IBM Gen 2 API key.

Terraform deploys the following components:

• Two FortiGate BYOL instances with four NICs each, one in each subnet.
• Three floating Public IP addresses: one attached to the Primary FortiGate on Port1, which will failover and the other two attached to the HA management port (Port4) of each FortiGate.
• One log disk per FortiGate.
• A basic bootstrap configuration with HA support.
