Known issues

The following known issues have been identified with FortiOS 7.2.3. For inquiries about a particular bug or to report a bug, please contact Fortinet Customer Service & Support.

Bug ID Description
298348, 298994 Enabling the hw-switch-ether-filter command on the FG-92D model (the default setting) causes FortiSwitch devices to not be discovered.
520954 When a “FortiLink mode over a layer-3 network” topology has been configured, the FortiGate GUI does not always display the complete network.
527695 Starting in FortiOS 6.4.0, VLAN optimization is enabled by default (set vlan-optimization enable under config switch-controller global). On a network running FortiSwitchOS earlier than 6.0.0, this change results in a synchronization error, but the network still functions normally. If you have FortiSwitchOS 6.0.x, you can upgrade to remove the synchronization error or disable VLAN optimization.

On a network with set allowed-vlans-all enable configured (under config switch-controller vlan-policy), the setting reverts to the default, which is disabled, when upgrading to FortiOS 6.4.0. If you want to maintain the allowed-vlans-all behavior, you can restore it after the upgrade.
586801 NetBIOS stops working when proxy ARP is configured and the access VLAN is enabled because FortiGate units do not support NetBIOS proxy.
621785 user.nac-policy[].switch-scope might contain a data reference to switch-controller.managed-switch. When this reference is set by an admin, the admin needs to remove this reference before deleting the managed-switch.

The FortiLink NAC matched device is displayed in the CLI but not in WiFi & Switch Controller > NAC Policies > View Matched Devices.

There should be a Create MCLAG pair button in the Topology view under WiFi & Switch Controller > Managed FortiSwitches.

  • When LAN segments are enabled on the FS-108E, FS-108E-POE, FS-108E-FPOE, FS-108F, FS-108F-POE, FS-108F-FPOE, FS-124E, FS-124E-POE, FS-124E-FPOE, FS-148E, FS-148E-POE, FS-148F, FS-148F-POE, FS-148F-FPOE, FS-124F, FS-124F-POE, and FS-124F-FPOE models, the internal VLAN (set lan-internal-vlan) is assigned automatically by default. If the same VLAN is configured on the FortiGate device, the configuration fails when it is pushed to the FortiSwitch unit without any warning message. WORKAROUND: Use a custom command.

  • All sub-VLANs must belong to the same MSTP instance if the FortiLink configuration includes the FS-108E, FS-108E-POE, FS-108E-FPOE, FS-108F, FS-108F-POE, FS-108F-FPOE, FS-124E, FS-124E-POE, FS-124E-FPOE, FS-148E, FS-148E-POE, FS-148F, FS-148F-POE, FS-148F-FPOE, FS-124F, FS-124F-POE, and FS-124F-FPOE models.

813216

After CAPWAP offload is enabled or disabled, FortiLink goes down.

825377

When the VDOM is enabled, some pages in the GUI are slow to display or do not display.

831439

Multiple DHCP servers can be configured for the same range on an interface when the interface name contains a comma.

836604

The command for the managed switch port speed for a 40-Gbps copper interface is missing.
