[Ravina]

Hi everyone

I have a core switch connected to different access switches. when any user connected on any access switch through LAN then how should i know the user is connected to which access switch from that user's MAC address.

[Ravina]

Hi,

I tried this "get switch lldp neighbors-detail" command and get below output.

Hi,

You're currently getting information from the access switch that's connected to the core switch.
Please run the same command directly on the access switch to verify if it meets your requirement.

Hii,

This is not my requirement. i want that i should get port number of core switch from which mac entry is coming, so i can check which access switch is connected to that port and can check on that particular access switch.

You cannot learn it on Fortigate which does not manage those switches, you'd have to manually enter each switch, list its mac-address table and look for the user's MAC address. 

Unrelated: managing FortiSwitches as stand-alone devices is an exercise in frustration, fortunately it happens very rarely in real life.
