Question

Fortigate -> WAN1 -> VLAN7

Dear volks,

i did the initial setup on a fortigate which is behind a VDSL2 Modem (German Provider = Vodafone VDSL). The provider require to setup a VLAN 7 (or 132) on the WAN interface to be able to connect. The only solution that i found was to add a VLAN interface on the physical interface WAN1 what is a sub-device then. For some reasons i would like to have the physikal interface to be able to have the VLAN directly (as for firewall rules it is more useful instead of working with the sub-vlan-device from my perspective).

 

So, the question is - would it be possible to setup a VLAN id on the physical interface WAN1 directly?

No, it's not possible with FGTs.

Hmm.... why not?

  if he's asking about a pure 802.1q tag, than yes he can  unset the WAN1 and set it with  vlan type and with a vlanid1

Unset what attribute? I looked for changing or unsetting "type" of wan1, which is physical. But I couldn't find a way to change it to something else like vlan in order to have vlanid attribute available. I'm testing it with 60E/5.6.6.
