I built an open-source automated migration tool: VMware Avi Vantage to FortiADC (avi2fortiadc)

说明与用途

自动化迁移工具，将 VMware Avi 配置迁移至 FortiADC，减少时间和错误。

问题

Migrating complex load balancing environments from VMware Avi (NSX ALB) to FortiADC manually is time‑consuming and error‑prone, especially translating virtual services, pool groups, health monitors, SSL profiles, and Lua DataScripts.

结果

The tool automates the migration of VMware Avi configurations to FortiADC, providing full discovery, conversion, visual review, dry‑run, and zero‑downtime deployment with rollback capability.

工作流

• Discover Avi objects via API
• Parse and convert virtual services, pools, persistence, SSL profiles, health monitors
• Translate Avi Lua DataScripts to FortiADC Lua/routing rules
• Generate visual topology and diff for review
• Perform dry‑run to validate conversion
• Deploy converted configuration to FortiADC via REST API in ordered sequence
• Generate rollback script if needed
