Technical Tip: Unable to enable VLAN pooling in SSID when security mode is set to WPA3-SAE from the GUI

In some cases, when the SSID under WiFi & Switch Controller -> SSID -> Security Mode is set the WPA3-SAE, the VLAN pooling is unavailable to enable from the GUI.

Workaround:

• Enable VLAN pooling from the CLI.

FortiGate # config wireless-controller vap

FortiGate (vap) # edit "WPA3-SAE"

FortiGate (WPA3-SAE) # set vlan-pooling
wtp-group Enable VLAN pooling with VLAN assignment by wtp-group.
round-robin Enable VLAN pooling with round-robin VLAN assignment.
hash Enable VLAN pooling with hash-based VLAN assignment.
disable Disable VLAN pooling.

VLAN pooling can be enabled from the GUI after upgrading the FortiGate to v7.6.1.
