Maestro Madness
Hello Guys,
ike to create a lab to try the Transparent between both devices but use the company DHCP.
I have a bit confused does the bridge mode is same of function as Transparent on Forti ?
If so , How could i do ?
Also i have attachment my flow chart , please kindly assist me..... this is really my big trouble
Thanks everyone in advance
While I’m not exactly familiar with how it works on Forti, it can be done on the Quantum Spark appliances too.
We call it bridge mode, though it requires an IP to be assigned to it.
It’s similar to: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/SMB-Gateways-Spark/Creating-a-Trunk-Port-in-SMB-1430-appliance/m...
Really appreciate
It working on my devices,
but just a bit question, when I enable the bridge mode with WAN internet1 and other ports to make an one br0 group .
why I cannot assigned an static IP address to the bridge WAN? (This mean our company DCHP assigned IP address.)
I only can got the IP from our gateway
such as ,the port have IP 10.40.53.190,But I wanted to modify it to 53.28.
I cannot find the button can fill it.
Thanks again
How precisely is it configured?
Screenshots will help here.
Hello Sir,
Thanks you for the relied.
Please have my attachment as below,
When interfaces are bridged, it is not possible to configure an IP address on the interfaces themselves.
The desired static (not DHCP) address must be configured on the bridge interface.
What precisely happens when you configure the desired IP address on the bridge interface?
Hello Sir,
Sorry for late to reply it.
I want to managed our company DHCP address, Such as i want do defined the Network interface IPs are : 10.40.53.100 - 120
So i want to desired my bridge mode interface IP to staic
The bridge should be a static IP.
However, what was the WAN configuration before you joined it to the bridge?
I suspect you will need to break the bridge, reconfiguring the WAN connection to use a static IP, then reconfiguring the bridge.
