Description


This article describes the workaround for an issue where the users connected to an SSID operating in Tunnel Mode are unable to access Intranet/Internet.

Scope


FortiGate v7.0.15.

Solution


Users connected to the SSID in tunnel mode receive a DHCP IP address, but access to the Intranet/Internet fails to work as expected.
When sniffers are run on the SSID interface, VLAN-tagged traffic is observed from the FortiAP, even though VLAN tagging is not configured on the SSID.
