Devices are not identified properly
Hi
I have deployed Fortigate 200F. Now... Log & Report > Forward Traffic:
Source IP - computer1 with IP .57
Device is identified as - computer2 with name ...ON
But the IP of the identified device is: 2.10 (computer3)
The system is not Android.
MAC address: does not belong to any of these computers
What's happening?
Below is a view from "Device Inventory".
 
 This machine is shown twice in the list. One time correctly and the other time falsely.
Why is it added twice?
Why is it not using this first post?
How can I fix it?
I tried to delete a wrong entry, but I cannot.

Hi @Anonymous Thank you for your answer.
Why is vlan such a problem in device recognition for Forti? After all, I can see these devices on the network with the correct mac, ip, name.
Second question - as you can see Forti basically recognized the device as well. The problem is that it doesn't use correct recognition. I can't correct it somehow manual? Since he already has this entry, let him use it, and not the other one - the wrong one.
