Fortinac-F Multiple Host Problem

I have this problem with Fortinac. I have a port and computer A is plugged into this port. When computer B is plugged into the same port, both computer A and B appear under the port even though computer A is not plugged in. Even though I deleted computer A, it is still under the port. The device is quarantined because there is more than one device. Fortiswitch can be used.

This seem like an issue with the switch MAC table information, L2 polling or SNMP traps not properly configured. Is this FortiSwitch managed by a FortiGate or is in standalone mode?

If the MAC address is still reported by the switch, FortiNAC will not remove the host from the port.

It's run by a fortigate.

Please refer to the troubleshooting section of the integration guide and verify if FNAC can successfully L2 poll the FGT (API/HTTPS access needed) and at least one notification method is configured, through syslog or SNMP MAC traps.

On Fortigate, both A and B devices appear on the port. However, when I look at the switch mac table, only a appears. Why is the port information not transferred properly over fortilink?

This seems like a compatibility issue between the FGT and FSW, kindly check the FortiLink compatibility matrix and choose the combination with 'R' if it's possible.
