Allow switch controller to set source IP for outbound connections 6.4.3

By default, a FortiGate uses the outbound interface's IP to communicate with a FortiSwitch managed over layer 3. The switch-controller-source-ip option allows the switch controller to use the FortiLink fixed address instead.

Parameter	Description
switch-controller-source-ip	Source IP address for FortiLink traffic. outbound: Source IP address is the outbound interface. fixed: Source IP address is the FortiLink interface.

To configure the FortiLink interface as the source IP address:

config system interface
    edit "fortilink"
        set vdom "vdom1"
        set fortilink enable
        set switch-controller-source-ip fixed
        set ip 169.254.1.1 255.255.255.0
        set allowaccess ping fabric
        set type aggregate
        set member "port7"
        ...
    next
end
