Upgrade managed FortiSwitch devices

FortiOS 6.0.10 supports FortiSwitch 3.6.9 and later.

1. Connect to the FortiGate that manages the FortiSwitch.
2. Go to WiFi & Switch Controller > Managed FortiSwitch. Select the FortiSwitch and select Edit. If new firmware is available, a message from FortiGuard appears. Select Upgrade. You can also upload the firmware manually from your computer.
3. After the FortiSwitch uploads the firmware and reboots, go to WiFi & Switch Controller > Managed FortiSwitch, select the FortiSwitch, and select Edit. Confirm that Firmware displays the correct version.

After upgrading, you must manually create a firewall policy to allow RADIUS traffic for 802.1x authentication from the FortiSwitch (for example, from the FortiLink interface) to the RADIUS server through the FortiGate.
