Hi everyone! I have this scenario.. FSW124D-POE ---> Ubiquiti NanoStation M5 <---> Ubiquiti Rocket M5 <---Fortigate100E
I want to administrate the Fortiswitch from fortigate... i get to authorize the Fortiswitch but Fortilink the CAPWAP tunnel naver came up.
Can anyone help me with this?!
Regards!
hi
Fortilink/CAPWAP through Nanostations
it is recommended to enable WDS mode in wireless tab and STP (Spinning tree protocol) in the network part in case you will have loop. and using Static IP addresses for Nanostations to access them later.
Enable the FortiLink point-to-point network on each FortiSwitch unit and set the speed on 100full (sometimes we need this because of the UBNT POE adapter speed):
You can access the FortiSwitch CLI via Console cable, and Putty or from FortiGate.
config switch physical-port
edit <port_name connected to nanostation>
set fortilink-p2p enable
set speed 100full
end
After connecting both Nanostations and switches on sites you should see Switches Online.
