Fortigate 80c
-
I am using Fortigate 80c in my Network and have 2 DHCP Enabled on that Firewall so how can i make the two Pools of IPs communicate with each other noting that there is a Policy to Allow the connection between them but still can not communicate so what should be done to fulfill that ?
-
Are they two separate subnets or just two DHCP scopes?
If they are two subnets you'd need to setup routing between them and configure Firewall ACL to allow what you need.
-
You need a route, just like any two subnets. They need a router to connect the two networks together. The Fortigate can do this, but needs to be set up to do so.
-
Why do you have two separate pools?
-
there are 2 Physical Ports in the Fortigate that are connected with Switches while each port has a DHCP with pool ( 192.168.1.1) for the first DHCP and (192.168.2.1)for the Second DHCP and also there is a Policy that allow the communication between the two Interfaces with each other
and what happened is that i can reach to the IP of each Interface Only not the whole Pool from the other subnet. -
Why are they separate? We need more background on that.
-
it is something related to network design and it is normal at all
any way i have configured routing protocol on Fortigate and it is working now
thanks to all of you -

We assumed it was designed that way but, that doesn't mean it's necessary or right.
