Hi all.

As per subject - how do I need to proceed, to be able to use the two 40G ports (53 & 54) on a FSW1048E?

In the GUI I see only up to port 52 and I would like to use 53-54 for ISL between two identical FSW1048E (running 6.0.3).

Thanks,

Flavio.

OK - from the FSW 6.0.2 CLI reference guide, on pages 90-91:

config switch phy-mode set port-configuration <default | disable-port54 | disable-port41-48 | 4x100G | 6x40G> set port<number>-phy-mode {1x40G | 4x10G}

end

So far I've been able to at least see the port LEDs light up on ports 53&54, but in the GUI they're still not appearing.

Hi Rich.

In the GUI I still don't see ports 53-54 and I'm running FOS 6.0.6 on the FGT

from what i heard this should be fixed in FortiOS 6.2

FortiOS 6.0 doesnt understand you can configure to 6 x 40gig ports. The switch does, but the gate doesnt.
