Hi,

do make sure one thing:

On FortiLink interface there must be the NTP service listening. As such, do make sure that the system time and time zone of the FortiGate is correct.

To reboot the device, you can CLI to the FortiGate and from there SSH into the switch as I would think it is not actually offline.

exec ssh admin@169.254.0.1, or whatever the switch IP is.

On the switch CLI: exec reboot

hope this does the trick.

Best regards,

Markus

It depends on the model of the FSW if it has an in built clock or not
