FIM-7904E interface module
The FIM-7904E interface module is a hot swappable module that provides data, management and session
sync/heartbeat interfaces, base backplane switching and fabric backplane session-aware load balancing for a
FortiGate-7000 series chassis. The FIM-7904E includes an integrated switch fabric and DP2 processors to load
balance millions of data sessions over the chassis fabric backplane to FPM processor modules.
The FIM-7904E can be installed in any FortiGate-7000 series chassis. Normally you would install two FIM-7904E
modules in chassis hub/switch slots 1 and 2. Two FIM-7904Es provide a total of eight Quad Small Form-factor
Pluggable plus (QSFP+) interfaces for a FortiGate-7000 chassis. Using a 40GBASE-SR10 multimode QSFP+
transceiver, each QSFP+ interface can also be split into four 10GBASE-SR interfaces.
You can also install FIM-7904Es in a second chassis and operate the chassis in HA mode with another set of
processor modules to provide chassis failover protection.
FIM-7904E front panel
The FIM-7904E includes the following hardware features:
l Eight front panel 40GigE QSFP+ fabric channel interfaces (B1 to B8). These interfaces are connected to 40Gbps
networks to distribute sessions to the FPM processor modules installed in chassis slots 3 and up. Using 40GBASESR10 multimode QSFP+ transceivers, each QSFP+ interface can also be split into four 10GBASE-SR interfaces.
These interfaces also support creating link aggregation groups (LAGs) that can include interfaces from both FIM7904Es.
l Two front panel 10GigE SFP+ interfaces (M1 and M2) that connect to the base backplane channel. These
interfaces are used for heartbeat, session sync, and management communication between FIM-7904Es in different
chassis. These interfaces can also be configured to operate as Gigabit Ethernet interfaces using SFP transceivers,
but should not normally be changed. If you use switches to connect these interfaces, the switch ports should be
able to accept packets with a maximum frame size of at least 1526. The M1 and M2 interfaces need to be on
different broadcast domains. If M1 and M2 are connected to the same switch, Q-in-Q must be enabled on the
switch.
l Four 10/100/10000BASE-T out of band management Ethernet interfaces (MGMT1 to MGMT4).
l One 80Gbps fabric backplane channel for traffic distribution with each FPM module installed in the same chassis as
the FIM-7904E.

Each 40GE interface (B1 to B8) on the FIM-7904Es in slot 1 and slot 2 of a FortiGate-7000 system can be split
into 4x10GBE interfaces. You split these interfaces after the FIM-7904Es are installed in your FortiGate-7000
system and the system us up and running. You can split the interfaces of the FIM-7904Es in slot 1 and slot 2 at
the same time by entering a single CLI command. Splitting the interfaces requires a system reboot so Fortinet
recommends that you split multiple interfaces at the same time according to your requirements to avoid traffic
disruption.
FIM-7904E Interface Module Guide

Turning the module on and offFIM-7904E interface module
For example, to split the B1 interface of the FIM-7904E in slot 1 (this interface is named 1-B1) and the B1 and B4
interfaces of the FIM-7904E in slot 2 (these interfaces are named 2-B1 and 2-B4) connect to the CLI of your
FortiGate-7000 system using the management IP and enter the following command:
config system global
set split-port 1-B1 2-B1 2-B4
end
After you enter the command, the FortiGate-7000 reboots and when it comes up:
l The 1-B1 interface will no longer be available. Instead the 1-B1/1, 1-B1/2, 1-B1/3, and 1-B1/4 interfaces will be
available.
l The 2-B1 interface will no longer be available. Instead the 2-B1/1, 2-B1/2, 2-B1/3, and 2-B1/4 interfaces will be
available.
l The 2-B4 interface will no longer be available. Instead the 2-B4/1, 2-B4/2, 2-B4/3, and 2-B4/4 interfaces will be
available.
You can now connect breakout cables to these interfaces and configure traffic between them just like any other
FortiGate interface.
Turning the module on and off
You can use the front panel power button to turn the module power on or off. If the module is powered on, press
the power switch to turn it off. If the module is turned off and installed in a chassis slot, press the power button to
turn it on.
NMI switch
When working with Fortinet Support to troubleshoot problems with the FIM-7904E you can use the front panel
non-maskable interrupt (NMI) switch to assist with troubleshooting. Pressing this switch causes the software to
dump registers/backtraces to the console. After the data is dumped the board reboots. While the board is
rebooting, traffic is temporarily blocked. The board should restart normally and traffic can resume once its up and
running.
FIM-7904E hardware architecture
The FIM-7904E includes an integrated switch fabric (ISF) that connects the front panel interfaces to the DP2
session-aware load balancers and to the chassis backplanes. The ISFalso allows the DP2 processors to
distribute sessions amoung all NP6 processors on the FPMmodules in the same chassis.

Installing QSFP+, SFP+, and SFP transceiversHardware installation
Hardware installation
This chapter describes installing a FIM-7904E interface module into a FortiGate-7000 chassis.
Installing QSFP+, SFP+, and SFP transceivers
You must install QSFP+ transceivers into the FIM-7904E B1 to B8 interfaces before connecting them to 40Gbps
networks. See FIM-7904E front panel on page 4 for the locations of the B1 to B8 interfaces. You can install the
QSFP+ transceivers before or after inserting the FIM-7904E module into a chassis.
You must install SFP+ transceivers into the FIM-7904E M1 and M2 interfaces before connecting them to 10Gbps
networks. The FIM-7904E ships with two 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceivers. You can also configure the M1 and
M2 interfaces to operate at 1Gbps and install SFP transceivers. You can install these transceivers before or after
inserting the FIM-7904E board into a chassis.
You can install the following types of transceivers for connectors M1 and M2:
l 10GBASE-SR SFP+ (10Gbps)
l 10GBASE-LR SFP+ (10Gbps)
l 1000BASE SFP (1Gbps)
The M1 and M2 interfaces are used for heartbeat, session sync, and management
communication between FIM-7904Es in different chassis. This communication
requires 10 Gbps connections so, even though it supported, the M1 and M2 interfaces
should not changed to 1000Base SFP 1Gbps interfaces.
To install transceivers
To complete this procedure, you need:
l A FIM-7904E
l Transceivers to install
l An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
FIM-7904Es must be protected from static discharge and physical shock. Only handle
or work with FIM-7904Es at a static-free workstation. Always wear a grounded
electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling FIM-7904Es.
Handling the transceivers by holding the release latch can damage the connector. Do
not force transceivers into their cage slots. If the transceiver does not easily slide in
and click into place, it may not be aligned correctly. If this happens, remove the
transceiver, realign it and slide it in again.
1.
Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an available ESD socket or wrist strap terminal.
2.
Remove the caps from the cage sockets on the FIM-7904E front panel.
Hold the sides of the transceiver and slide it into the cage socket until it clicks into place.
FIM-7904E mounting components
To install a FIM-7904E you slide the module into a hub/switch slot in the front of an FortiGate-7000 series chassis
(either slot 1 or 2) and then use the mounting components to lock the module into place in the slot. When locked
into place and positioned correctly the module front panel is flush with the chassis front panel. The module is also
connected to the chassis backplane.
To position the module correctly you must use the mounting components shown below for the right of the FIM7904E front panel. The mounting components on the left of the front panel are the same but reversed. The FIM7904E mounting components align the module in the chassis slot and are used to insert and eject the module
from the slot.
On some FIM modules there may be very little clearance between the front panel
interfaces and the handle on the right side of the FIM-7904E. In fact you may have to
remove network connectors from some front panel interfaces to open the handle. In
most cases you should remove all network connectors from the front panel before
opening the handles to remove a FIM module from a chassis slot.
The FIM-7904E handles align the module in the chassis slot and are used to insert and eject the module from the
slot. The latches activate micro switches that turn on or turn off power to the module. When both latches are
raised the module cannot receive power. When the latches are fully closed if the module is fully inserted into a
chassis slot the module can receive power.

Inserting a FIM-7904E module into a chassis
This section describes how to install an FIM-7904E module into a FortiGate-7000 series chassis hub/switch slot
(slot 1 or 2).
You must carefully slide the module all the way into the chassis slot, close the handles
to seat the module into the slot, and tighten the retention screws to make sure the
module is fully engaged with the backplane and secured. You must also make sure
that the sliding latches are fully closed by gently pushing them down. The handles
must be closed, the retention screws tightened and the latches fully closed for the
module to get power and start up. If the module is not receiving power all LEDs remain
off.
FIM-7904Es are hot swappable. The procedure for inserting a FIM-7904E into a chassis slot is the same whether
or not the chassis is powered on.
To insert a FIM-7904E into a chassis slot
Do not carry the FIM-7904E by holding the handles or retention screws. When
inserting or removing the FIM-7904E from a chassis slot, handle the module by the
front panel. The handles are not designed for carrying the board. If the handles
become bent or damaged the FIM-7904E may not align correctly in the chassis slot.
To complete this procedure, you need:
l A FIM-7904E
l A FortiGate-7000 chassis with an empty hub/switch slot
l An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
FIM-7904Es must be protected from static discharge and physical shock. Only handle
or work with FIM-7904Es at a static-free workstation. Always wear a grounded
electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling FIM-7904Es.
Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal
surface on the chassis or frame. (An ESD wrist strap is not visible in the photographs
below because they were taken in an ESD safe lab environment.)

1. Remove the FIM-7904E module from its packaging. Align the module with the chassis slot
and slide the module part way into the slot.
In the photograph an example FIM-7904E is being installed into chassis slot 1 of a FortiGate-7040E chassis.
2. Unlock the left and right handles by pushing the handle latches up about 2 mm until the
handles pop open.
Fully open both handles before sliding the module into the chassis to avoid damaging the handle mechanism.
Damaging the handles may prevent the module from connecting to power.

Inserting a FIM-7904E module into a chassisHardware installation
3. Carefully slide the module into the slot until the handles engage with the sides of the
chassis slot, partially closing them.
Insert the module by applying moderate force to the front faceplate (not the handles) to slide the module into the
slot. The module should glide smoothly into the chassis slot. 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.
4. Push both handles closed and close the latches.
Closing the handles draws the module into place in the chassis slot and into full contact with the chassis
backplane. The module front panel should be in contact with the chassis front panel and the latches should drop
down and lock into place. You should gently push the latches down to make sure they lock. The module will not
receive power until the latches are fully locked.

5. Tighten both retention screws to secure the module in the chassis.
You can tighten the retention screws by hand with a Phillips screwdriver. If you use a power screwdriver the
tightening torque needs to be adjusted between 3 In-lb to 4 In-lb (0.4 N-m to 0.48 N-m).
As the latches are locked, power is supplied to the module. If the chassis is powered on during insertion the status
LED flashes green as the module starts up. Once the module has started up and is operating correctly, the front
panel LEDs are lit for normal operation.

Troubleshooting
This section describes some common troubleshooting topics:
18FIM-7904E Interface Module Guide
Fortinet Technologies Inc.
Hardware installationTroubleshooting
FIM-7904E does not startup
Positioning of FIM-7904E mounting components and a few other causes may prevent a FIM-7904E from starting
up correctly.
Latches and handles not fully closed
If the latches or handles are damaged or positioned incorrectly the FIM-7904E may not start up. Make sure the
latches are fully closed and the handles are correctly aligned, fully inserted and locked and the retention screws
are tightened.
Firmware problem
If the FIM-7904E is receiving power and the latches are handles are fully closed, and you have restarted the
chassis and the FIM-7904E still does not start up, the problem could be with FortiOS. Connect to the FIM-7904E
console and try cycling the power to the board. If the BIOS starts up, interrupt the BIOS startup and install a new
firmware image.
If this does not solve the problem, contact Fortinet Technical Support.
FIM-7904E status LED is flashing during system operation
Normally, the FIM-7904E Status LED is off when the FIM-7904E is operating normally. If this LED starts flashing
while the module is operating, a fault condition may exist. At the same time the FIM-7904E may stop processing
traffic.
To resolve the problem you can try removing and reinserting the FIM-7904E in the chassis slot. Reloading the
firmware may also help.
If this does not solve the problem there may have been a hardware failure or other problem. Contact Fortinet
Technical Support for assistance.
