Technical Tip: FortiLink setup

[Shilpa1]

Description
This article describes how to create or edit FortiLink interfaces.

Solution
Go to WiFI & Switch Controller -> FortiLink Interface to create or edit FortiLink interfaces.
The available options depend on the capability of the FortiGate model.

By automatically creating FortiLink interfaces as a logical aggregate or hard/soft switch, modify the FortiLink interfaces is possible.
If the physical port in use changes, migrate existing policies is not necessary.

Configure the interface settings and select 'Apply'.

By default, one FortiLink interface can be configured from GUI.

The GUI will display multiple FortiLink interfaces if more than one interface has FortiLink enabled from CLI.

To enable a physical or aggregate interface as a FortiLink from CLI:

# config system interface
    edit <port>
        set vdom <string>
        set fortilink enable  
    next
end
