Greetings. I have 2 FG 100E, 2 FS448D (aggregation), and 4 FS12E (access). All switches are assigned IPs from Fortilink range. Configured vlans are: 10, 20 and 30. Our client wants a second IP for management in every switch. Such IP must belong to vlan 30 range. The main idea is to be able to log into the switches to make configurations in case FG100E are off for any reason, and such access has to be possible from vlan 30. Additionaly, do I need some other policies to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

Will the users that manage the switches from vlan30 also be on vlan30? Then no additional policies required I think.

Can't you use the management interface on FS448D?
