Technical Tip: Loopback interface not supported for out-of-band management
| Description | This article describes that using the loopback interface for out-of-band management with reserved management interfaces is not supported. |
| Scope | FortiGate running versions 7.0, 7.2, 7.4, 7.6. |
| Solution | The configuration guide for Out-of-band management with reserved management interfaces allows any physical interface to be configured for Out-of-band management. However, when using the loopback interface, there is no option to select it, even if it is configured. This is because the loopback interface is not a physical interface and is therefore not supported.
