LAG can be configured with switch interface.Can this later on be converted to NAT mode?

Suppose I have done lag of 4 ports as in-bound and 4 ports as out-bound.

Then they will act as 2 ports. 1 for in-bound and 1 for out-bound. After that can I convert whole firewall into NAT mode.

    A diagram would help but your question doesn't make any sense. A LAG is a layer2 function. If your asking can you apply a layer3 address over a LAG and in routed-mode than yes.

     

    If your talking about converting from transparent mode to routenat mode , than any policies and vdoms would have to probably be deleted. So the short answer is no.

    May be i have not.explained.better. I have asked this becuz. We are going to.work in a network.In which fortinets interfaces are laged and fortinet is in.nat route mode. So i was also thinking how they.have done it. May be they have made lag on switch.mode.first then they might have changed the mode to.routed mode

    Still don't understand are you using a hardware  switch a fortiswitch or what? What do you mean by switch-mode?
