Failed FSW108F - FortiLink mode over a layer-3 network

Hi Community,

 

I'm running into a problem while testing a customer setup. Customer is using a 3rd party device between FG and FortiSwitches, so I'm testing that setup. FortiLink mode over a layer-3 network is working fine with 2 FS224D-FPOE, but the FS108F is making some trouble. Fortigate is running version 7.2.5, all FortiSwitches are running 7.2.3. As you can see in the screenshot, CAPWAP is coming up, but after some time there are some error messages and the CAPWAP is down again. Anyone an idear what's wrong here? When connecting the FS108F direct to another fortiswitch, it's working fine.

 

Thanks 

Regards

Nico

Hi Anthony,

 

I already was able to solve that one. I've done a FW update for the 108F from v7.2.3 to v7.2.4.

Now the switch is stable.

 

Anyhow, thanks a lot for taking care of this one.
