Devices don't reach guest-vlan

I have a FortiGate71F (v7.4.8 build2795) "FortiLink'ed" to a FortiSwitch124F (7.6.1-build1047)

I have a Dynamic Port policy:

config switch-controller dynamic-port-policy
    edit "typcialdevices"
        set description "A port policy for typical devices we know about."
        set fortilink "afortilink"
        config policy
            edit "forti-aps"
                set description "The FortiAPs"
                set mac "b4:b2:e9:*:*:*"
                set hw-vendor "Fortinet"
                set family "FortiAP"
                set vlan-policy "vpapmgmt"
            next
            edit "pmsi-default"
                set description "LAST policy rule. This indicates the default properties for any"
                set mac "*:*:*:*:*:*"
                set 802-1x "nps-even"
            next
        end
    next
end

I have a Security Policy:

config switch-controller security-policy 802-1X
    edit "nps-even"
        set security-mode 802.1X-mac-based
        set user-group "nps-radius"
        set mac-auth-bypass disable
        set open-auth disable
        set eap-passthru enable
        set eap-auto-untagged-vlans enable
        set guest-vlan enable
        set guest-vlan-id "flguest"
        set guest-auth-delay 1
        set auth-fail-vlan enable
        set auth-fail-vlan-id "flguest"
        set framevid-apply enable
        set radius-timeout-overwrite disable
        set authserver-timeout-vlan enable
        set authserver-timeout-vlanid "flguest"
        set authserver-timeout-tagged disable
        set dacl disable
    next
end

I have the endpoint switch ports set to:

edit "port5"
    set poe-capable 1
    set vlan "flguest"
    set allowed-vlans "quarantine" "flguest"
    set untagged-vlans "quarantine"
    set access-mode dynamic
    set port-policy "typcialdevices"
    set export-to "root"
    set mac-addr 48:3a:02:3e:d3:29
next

The DPP works well. Multiple devices using different authentication methods with 802.1X work well.

I cannot get devices that are 802.1X incapable to fail to the guest/auth-fail VLAN (flguest / 130).

What I'm I missing?

Below is the debug output:

Thank you @Anthony_E. Due to external events, this issue started when I was using a 124F-FPOE. I am now using a 148F-POE. The issue persists and the behavior is identical. I've done the following while to try and troubleshoot this issue:

  • Tried different ports on the switch
  • Used different Windows 11 laptop
  • Used a non-windows device that is not 802.1X capable
  • Set port to static and assigning the 802.1X security policy to the port
  • Set port to static and assigning the flguest (130) as the Native VLAN
    • Device is able to access the Internet as intended
  • Tried different values for guest-auth-delay:
  • Enabling guest-vlan while disabling auth-fail-vlan
  • Disabling guest-vlan while enabling auth-fail-vlan
  • Enabling authserver-timeout-vlan (even though that should not matter)
  • Enabling radius-timeout-overwrite (currently disabled)
  • Upgraded the switch from 7.2 to 7.6
  • Factoryresetfull
    • upgraded again
  • factoryreset (after upgrade to 7.6)
  • disabled switch-controller-access-vlan on flguest (130)
  • Enabled IGMP snooping (which I am not doing normally see: Reddit Post)
  • Enabled DHCP snooping

Below is the current configuration of the flguest (130) VLAN interface on the FortiGate:

 

Spoiler
edit "flguest"
 set vdom "root"
 set ip 10.30.131.1 255.255.255.0
 set allowaccess ping radius-acct
 set description "Internet only VLAN only used with the FortiLink interface."
 set device-identification enable
 set role lan
 set snmp-index 25
 set switch-controller-igmp-snooping enable
 set switch-controller-dhcp-snooping enable
 set color 6
 set interface "afortilink"
 set vlanid 130
next
