Hi,

what is the best way to model a fortigate firewall in netbox. Should I use the physical machines as a cluster and add the VDOMs as virtual machines or is the better way to go with VDOMs as VRFs?

We use Virtual Machines for the VDOMs so we can dockument interface names, Zone Names, and get a device to connect gateway IP to. Works very well

The virtual machines belongs to a cluster defined in Netbox, and the physical devices in the cluster are the Fortinet devices.

How do you map interface to zones and to physical ports?
