Currently one of our architects is prototyping exporting the logs from the fortigate active VM into a VM in the mgmt VPC.
Issue looks to be switching the nic as a mgmt interface causes it not to be available for firewall policies.
Need to reproduce and put up a PR patch to work with
Need to check on GCP firewall rules override as an option
Quoting prior to reproduction
- use the following repo to create the Fortigate cluster 6 VPC deployment https://github.com/fortinet/fortigate-tutorial-gcp/issues/1

```
config system ha
set group-name "group1"
set mode a-p
set hbdev "port3" 50
set session-pickup enable
set ha-mgmt-status enable
config ha-mgmt interfaces
edit 1
set interface "port3"
set gateway ${hamgmt_gateway_ip}
next
end
set override enable
set priority 255
set unicast-hb enable
set unicast-hb-peerip ${passive_hb_ip}
set unicast-hb-netmask ${hb_netmask}
end
