Finish the FortiSwitch configuration from the FortiGate device

  1. Authorize and name the access FortiSwitch units.

  2. Create FortiSwitch VLANs and assign them to FortiSwitch ports. You do not need to specify the IP address because the FortiGate device will not receive any of the data traffic (it will be switched locally or routed by the WAN router). Therefore, the DHCP service must be provided by the WAN router or other system located at the site.
