Removing interfaces from the hardware switch
Remove the interface1 and interface5 from the internal hardware switch, so you can configure them as a separate interfaces later.
This guide uses internal1 for the LAN interface and internal5 for the management interface.
In this example, ports 1 through 5 are displayed under Hardware Switch as internal interfaces labeled internal1, internal2, and so on. On some FortiGate models, the internal interfaces have the same names, but they are displayed under VLAN Switch instead. |
To remove interfaces from the hardware switch:
- Go to Network > Interfaces. The interfaces are displayed.
- Double-click the interface that includes the members named internal1 and internal5.
In this example, the Hardware Switch interface includes the internal1 and internal5 member.
The Edit Interface pane is displayed.
- Beside internal5, click the x to remove the member from the interface, and then do the same for internal1.
- Click OK to save the changes.
The internal1 and internal5 members are removed from the Hardware Switch and displayed under Physical Interfaces.
