Hello Team,
I have a fortigate to which I want to connect a fortiswitch and to this fortiswitch another fortiswitch in cascade.
My question is: in order to connect fortiswitch to fortiswitch, do I have to configure a particular port on the first fortiswitch and put it in fortilink or can I use the one I want? How should the port connecting the first fortiswitch to the second one in cascade be configured?
thank you for your support

If the switches are in default configuration the link between the switches should be automatically created as shown in the Guide here
After a FortiSwitch unit is discovered and in FortiLink mode, all ports are enabled for FortiLink. Connect another FortiSwitch unit to any of the already discovered FortiSwitch ports, and the ISL is formed automatically, and the new unit is discovered by the FortiGate unit.
