VRRP MAC pointed to wrong port

I have having a switching/routing problem where the standalone Fortiswitch thinks the MAC for the VRRP gateway is pointed to the wrong port.  I dont have a sticky turned on but I cant remove the address. MAC Entries is empty.  Copied config from port.  The vlan 2 MAC should be pointed to the same TRK_MPLS as the rest. 

 

edit "MCLAG-ICL"

set native-vlan 4094

set allowed-vlans 1-4094

set dhcp-snooping trusted

set igmp-snooping-flood-reports enable

set mcast-snooping-flood-traffic enable

set snmp-index 76

 

So my question is how do I remove something that doesn't exist anywhere?  Support ticket opened for a month now with no resolution.

Thanks for the help but I was able to figure it out.

I manually entered the MAC address into the MAC Entry table which then wiped the MAC sticky session listed.  Then removed my manual entry and the switch dynamically learned the appropriate port and that vlan is now working correctly.  I believe this a result of a VRRP implementation that didnt work correctly.
