Cant create a new Zone > Hardware Switch > LAN >>> No ping, no traffic....no idea why?

Hello,

our customer wants to create another zone LAN with ports 4-5-6 and as hardware switch....normaly easy task but we connected a laptop directly on port 4 at the new LAN zone and there is no ping to 8.8.8.8, we cant ping the other LANs and also we cant ping the firewall (not trusted IP is possible).

We have createt the different policies but there is no traffic. From the FG I can ping the host. Than we tried connecting the laptop to the LAN and it works fine, www access, access to other zones...so the laptop is fine. We also tried with connecting the switch and with another PC but no chance.

So strange, I dont have any ideas. Strange thing is that when I change the IP at this interface I get a failure message: This IP address is already in use by device 04:d5:90:17:71:74

 

Thanks in advance, Roland
