Hi,

 

Just want to know if FortiManager can access FortiSwitch CLI or edit the port of the FSW? If not, is it included on the future improvements/NFR of Fortinet?

 

Thanks.

Turn off Central Management for FortiSwitch in the ADOM of the FortiGate with the Switches.  You will be able to make port changes through FortiManager's WebUI without needing to use the CLI.  Any changes through the FortiSwitch CLI will be overwritten by the FortiGate, as the FortiGate holds the configuration of the FortiSwitch
