Hello,

 

You may consider to run in CLI on FortiGate side "execute switch-controller get-conn-status <FortiSwitch_serial_number>"  and check the status.

Hi Mustpha,

 

I understand that you are trying to bring the Fortiswitch on the Fortigate in managed mode and the status seems to be offline. I kindly request you to help me with the below details for validation. 

>What is the version running on the Fortigate 60F?

>What is the version of the Fortiswitch 148F?

>What is the type of interface created on the Fortigate where the Fortiswitches are connected(eg; Aggregate/physical/hardware switch)

Also, help me with the below outputs from the Switch CLI/console

 

#show switch trunk

#get system interface

#diag switch trunk summary

#execute switch controller get-conn-status

#execute time

 

If possible please share the " #diag debug report " output from the Switch as well.

 

I will validate and help you with the next action once you share the above details.

 

Regards,
Aneesh
