FortiLink won't come up/stay up!

Hi All, 

 

FortiLink was working fine, with a FortiSwitch connected on port A of a 60f. All kit lost power, and now port A is still showing up and green but the FortiLink doesn't and is down. 

 

If I add port B to the FortiLink it momentarily comes back up but then drops again. 

 

Switch is up and working, uplink port is up and connected. I have checked NTP on the FortiLink but not sure what else to do from here pending a reboot etc?


Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,

apologies Emirjon I missed your reply. 

 

I ended up rebooting the switch and it's working now. Weird though as the Physical port was showing as up, just not the fortilink etc. 

 

Thanks for the reply though

What does the output of this command show:

# execute switch-controller diagnose-connection S108EPxxxx   <-- replace with your switch serial number
