Hi folks.

I did not found an answer in the following request:

FortiGate ver. 7.6 with managed FortiSwitches & FortiAp's.

Created an SSID in tunnel mode, and i want to mirror this traffic to a port in the FortiSwitch for sniffing.

Any idea?

(creating software switch does not have the choice of selecting  the SSID interface).

Thanks

Confirm that i can select the tunnel ssid as a member of a softswitch.

Pls give me some time to check if i can see the mirrored traffic.

Thanks a lot

This article explains mirroring for a bridged SSID but as I checked is the same for a tunneled SSID. In order to add the tunnel SSID to a software switch, the SSID should not contain any IP configuration, details are shown here.
