IP Address of virtual-switch (hardware-switch) not in routing table

Hi all,

I'm very new on fortigate firewall.

I'm configuring a FG100D, it's running in "interface mode" and I need to bridge 2 interfaces, so I created a virtual-switch: I tried both GUI and CLI, then I set an IP Address on the interface "Virtual-Switch".

Testing with a ping, I can reach 2 devices connected to virtual-switch, but in "Routing->Monitor" there is not entry with the net assigned to VS, I also create some static routes and, of course, those routes are not in routing table.

 

Software-switch works well.

 

Do you have any suggestion?

 

This my virtual-switch config:

 

config system virtual-switch edit VS01 set physiscal-switch sw0 config port edit port 9 end edit port 10

Also do you happen to have multi vdoms on the 100D?

I'm assuming you used "get router info routing-t all" to see the table. Do you see anything differently if you try "get router info routing-t database"?

I have only root VDOM.

I checked routing table using webgui.

The worst effect is static routes with as next hop an IP on the subnet of hawrdware switch don't work.
