Did you get any error message when you typed the commands? It should complain you if your forgot to remove any references.

It's been quite some some since interface mode has become the default. But if I remember correctly, with the default config of older 5.2.x, you need to remove the default policy, and remove dhcp server and interface IP from lan interface, then remove the default dhcp server config referring lan interface. Then change the mode and reboot.

Having deleted references to the internal interface I believe you need to delete the virtual switch. Our process used to get a new unit ready to join a cluster is as follows, you may not need to change the wan port modes:

config firewall policy

    delete 1

end

config system dhcp server

    delete 1

end

config system virtual-switch

    delete internal

end

config system global

    set switch-controller disable

end

config system interface

    edit wan1

        set mode static

    next

    edit wan2

        set mode static

    next

end

Hi i have Fortiwifi 60E

I don't have this command. But i need use each port.

command parse error before 'internal-switch-mode' Command fail. Return code -61

I stopped using the clil command in FortiOS 5.4 because I noticed that in 5.4. or higher you can simply delete the virtual swich to get back to single interfaces...
