Turning FortiGate-4000 chassis power on and off

Getting started

Out of band management connections

You can manage the FortiBlade-4010 modules by connecting to the 10/100 out of
band management module. The 10/100 out of band management module provides
ethernet management connections for all of the FortiBlade-4010 modules installed in
the FortiGate-4000 chassis. See

Figure 6 on page 31

or

Figure 7 on page 32

for the

location of the 10/100 out of band management module.

Console management connections

You can connect to the CLI of each FortiBlade-4010 module by connecting the RJ-45
to DB-9 serial cable to the management module console port (see

Figure 10 on

page 33

). The management module provides console connections for all of the

FortiBlade-4010 modules installed in the FortiGate-4000 chassis.

Use the KVM switch module to switch serial connections to the CLI of each
FortiBlade-4010 module installed in the FortiGate-4000 chassis. To access the CLI,
connect the black header of the RJ-45 to DB-9 serial cable to the management
module (see

“Management module” on page 33

) and to a management PC. You can

use the KVM switch module (see

“KVM switch module” on page 30

) to select the

FortiBlade-4010 module that you can connect to.
