FAP directly connected to a FGT

Is it possible to connect a FortiAP directly to a port of a Fortigate where it has several vlans tagged?

 

I have a FortiAP that I have to connect directly to a 40F and I have several vlans for the different SSIDs.

 

For this type of architecture do I have to use a hardware switch or a software switch?

I tried it with 802.3ad and it didn't work, but I tested it with a software switch and it worked perfectly.

Hi,

 

In this case, you can use only an 802.3ad aggregation and use only 1 interface and put Vlan inside this aggregation, or put all Vlans on the connected interface.

Create 1 Vlan for each SSID if you use a bridge mode.

 

 

 

I hope this message helps you.
