Yes, I am sure.
Please check your interface status on FGT like:
#get hardware nic mgmt2 ..... Link up Speed 100 Mbps Duplex half

Jeff_FTNT,
My settings on the FortiGate and Switch are set to "auto". Are you sure that the arrow means just that?
I even opened a ticket (1307217), but the support did not know infomar me what it meant.
Thanks

Jeff_FTNT,
I ran the command you said and really the interface was "half".

The curious was that both doors were in auto mode (in the Switch and FortiGate).
Thanks,

What kind of switch? It look like both switch and FGT are happy with half-duplex.Thanks.

Jeff_FTNT,
It's a CISCO Catalyst 2960. The Half mode causes problems in my network.
Thanks

FG-600C Wan2 port is 1000M port, may be have some inconsistency with 100M Switch.
Try one 1000M port or force change Switch port setting. Thanks.

I'd check the cable as well, and any connectors (panels) in between ports.

Gentlemen,
To knowledge from all, there is a bug with the Fortgiate 600C which causes problems in auto-negotiation of the interface speed.
Thank you all for the answers.
