Hi all,
I configured out of the box a 148F layer 2 fortiswitch and connected it to a Cisco 2960X layer 2 switch. From the Fortiswitch I can ping anywhere in the LAN, but if connect my computer or IP phone to the switch - nothing.
The computer and phone are on separate ports and in the correct vlan. The ports connecting the two switches are up and no errors. The switch has a L3 interface and it can ping its default gateway and as mention anywhere on the LAN. I just cant figure out why I'm not able to get anything on the computer and phone.
I'm new to Fortinet and have experience only with Cisco switches.
Thank you.

Is it possible you have native LAN mis-match?
Thank you for help on this. I didn't know that the native vlan on the access port its self had to be the native vlan of the data vlan. I didn't even know that access ports needed a native vlan on FSW. On Cisco the native vlan is set on the trunk (Link aggregation port).
Hi @tolinrome, I'm having the same issue. Can you please share some screen shots of the final config? This config is making me crazy.
Also @ebilcari, I'm having this error when I try to assign a different native vlan to the internal interface:
Native Vlan id cannot be same as system interface vlan. Conflicting SVI: VLAN-709 object set operator error, -56 discard the settingCommand fail. Return code -56
Thanks in advance.
the internal interface of the switch is for management, what are you trying to configure?

Ok, solved. Was about the port speed in the Cisco. I adjust it in the FortiSwitch and everything worked.
- no Static Route needed.
- Access ports: config native VLAN only.
- "Trunk": config native VLAN (match with the Cisco one) and Allowed VLAN's.
- Every port like "Edge Port" and STP enabled.
- VLAN's created in System -> Interfaces -> VLAN.
This is my first time configuring a fortinet switch so, I really just made the native vlan on the access port the same as the native vlan of the data vlan I created.
Ok, then I supposed it worked just like that.
A last question, did you create a "Static Route" under the Router menu?
