Fortiswitch without subscription

Hello all, 

 

i have here an Fortigate 60E with enterprise bundle. It is possible to combine it with an Layer3 FortiSwitch 448E without subscription? Is the Switch restricted without subscription? This time i have an HP29xx series as Layer3. However, this does not work optimally with the Fortigate. I thought a Fortiswitch would be a better choice. Especially in device detection and IOT. 

 

Very Thanks

Best regards IPranger

    There is no additional subscription needed for the FortiLink to work. Should be pretty straightforward. Here are the directions for 6.4: https://docs.fortinet.com...340250/fortilink-setup

     

    The FortiGate will become the Layer 3 router for the managed switch. You will see all of the ports and VLAN configurations under WiFi & Switch Controller in the FortiGate GUI.
