There are two deployment methods used to connect a FortiExtender as a FortiSASE LAN extension:
Connect FortiExtender to FortiSASE using FortiZTP:
FortiZero Touch Provisioning (FortiZTP) simplifies the deployment process by allowing FortiExtender to automatically connect and configure itself with FortiSASE.
This method requires minimal manual configuration, making it efficient for large-scale deployments.
Enter the FortiSASE domain name in the FortiExtender GUI as a static discovery server:
Manually configuring the FortiSASE domain name in the FortiExtender GUI allows the extender to discover and connect to the FortiSASE infrastructure.
This static discovery method ensures that FortiExtender can establish a connection with FortiSASE using the provided domain name.
