It is important to carefully seat the FortiGate ASM CE4 module all the way into the chassis.
Only then will the FortiGate ASM CE4 module power-on.
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate ASM CE4 module
• A FortiGate chassis with an empty AMC single-width (SW) opening.
• To avoid any electrostatic discharge, install in a static free area.
FortiGate ASM CE4 modules are not hot swappable. The procedure for inserting the
FortiGate ASM CE4 module into a FortiGate chassis slot requires the FortiGate unit to be
powered off.
To avoid any electrostatic discharge (ESD) when handling FortiGate ASM CE4 modules,
install in a static free area.
To insert a FortiGate ASM CE4 module into a FortiGate chassis
Ensure the FortiGate unit is powered off before proceeding.1.
Remove the panel block on the FortiGate unit using the hot swap latch.2.
Pull the latch on the ASM CE4 module to the extended position.3.
Insert the FortiGate ASM CE4 module into the empty slot in the chassis. Ensure the4.
Fortinet logo is right-side up. It should be on the upper-right corner of the module.
Carefully guide the module into the chassis.5.
Insert the module by applying moderate force to the front faceplate near the upper edge6.
to slide the module into the slot.
The module should glide smoothly into the chassis. If you encounter any resistance
while sliding the module in, the module could be aligned incorrectly. Pull the module
back out and try inserting it again.
Press the hot swap latch to lock in the module.7.
Power on the FortiGate unit.8. The hot swap (HS) LED turns on and then begins ashing.

Congure the ports on the ASM-CE4 as you would any other ports on the FortiGate unit. For
more information on conguring ports, see the FortiGate Administration Guide.
Using the web-based manager, go to System > Network > Interface to congure the IP
address and netmask of the ports. The module ports are indicated as SWx/n, where nis the
port number.
Using the Command Line Interface (CLI) use the following commands:
cong system interface
edit <port_number>
set ip <ip_address>
set netmask <netmask>
set allowaccess {http | https | ssh | telnet | ping}
end
