Question

Fortilink over P2P

I have two managed Fortiswitches that I need to connect over P2P.

 

I am following this KB:

 

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortiswitch/7.0.8/devices-managed-by-fortios/801183/fortilink-over-a-point-to-point-layer-2-network

 

I believe the KB details the steps needed for unmanaged Fortiswitches. I say this as the config switch physical-port does not work when I enter the CLI on a Fortigate.

 

Does anyone know the required to enable P2P on two managed Fortiswitches?

 

Thanks.

I think the commands should be entered directly on FortiSwitch's CLI, not FortiGate.

The Fortiswitches are managed by a Fortigate.  How can I enter the commands via the Fortigate CLI?
