Fortiswitch Authentication Using LDAP
I have a FortiGate and a bunch of FortiSwitches that are being locally managed. I want to set up admin authentication using LDAP. I successfully configured this on the FortiGate but I can't get it to work on a FortiSwitch. Is this something that is just not possible? The switches are not linked with the firewall.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Judging based on the latest Standalone FortiSwitch documentation, it looks like only RADIUS/TACACS+ are supported, not LDAP.
