Make a software switch of Aggregate ports

Hello

 

I am new to this forum, but I already have found some interesting topics, nice job!

 

As company we bought a fortigate 200e and would like to set it up as follow :

 

1)Create 3 aggregate-ports

802.3ad Aggregate-port : port11-port12-port13-port14

802.3ad Aggregate-port : port15-port16

802.3ad Aggregate-port : port17-port18

 

2)Combine these 3 ports in a software switch

 

But we are not succeeding in step 2, we are working with the GUI-interface.

 

Are there any solutions for this problem?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Kind Regards

I don't believe it is possible to add aggregates into a soft switch.

 

The only solution would be to have the aggregates going into a separate switch and then from that switch into the fortigate.

I think can be.

 

When you create each Agg port on Step 1, just disable auto create address object matching subnet,

and see the result on Step 2.
