FortiSwitch - MCLAG Firmware Update/Mismatch
Good Morning,
Has anyone ran into issues when updating the firmware on MCLAG switches that would cause the switches to disconnect? I'm wondering if the MCLAG group of switches need to be updated to the same firmware at the same time?
Topology:
FW1 & FW2 (HA Active/Passive)
SW1 & SW2 MCLAG Group 1 (SW1 connected to SW3)(SW2 connected to SW4)
SW3 & SW4 MCLAG Group 2 (SW3 connected to SW5)(SW4 connected to SW6)
SW5 & SW6 MCLAG Group 3
SW1 & SW2 are running FortiSwitchOS 7.4.1
SW5 & SW6 have been updated to FortiSwitchOS 7.4.3
After updating SW4 to FortiSwitchOS 7.4.3 last night we lost access to switches 3-6.
The log message that stands out is "action="unsup-cfg" status="none" msg="MCLAG: **peer software mismatch local-software(v7.4.1,build0787,230921 (GA)) peer-software(v7.4.3,build0830,240422 (GA))""
Disabling the port on SW1 that connects to SW4 gave us access back to SW3-5 but SW6 is still down.
I'm assuming that updating SW3 to 7.4.3 will fix the problem but wondering if anyone else has seen similar issues?
We did update SW5 and SW6 separately from 7.4.1 to 7.4.3 (SW6 first and then SW5) without any issues which seems odd.
Thanks!
