Description This article explains the SSID 'Clone' button behavior in the FortiGate GUI.
Scope FortiGate v7.2, v7.4, v7.6.
Solution

In the FortiGate GUI, navigate to WiFi & Switch Controller -> SSID, create and select a new SSID, or choose an existing one, and then check the 'Clone' button as shown in the example below :

The option to clone an SSID is always grayed out, and this is by design. This option has been removed from v7.6. In v7.2 and v7.4, the 'Clone ' button is available, but it is always grayed out.

 

The above statement applies to all SSID types, including  Bridge mode and Tunnel mode SSIDs.
