    Resolved issues

    Resolved issues

    The following issues have been fixed in FortiSwitchOS 7.2.8. For inquiries about a particular bug, please contact Customer Service & Support.

    Bug ID Description
    892788 After restarting the FortiSwitch unit, the auto-discovery changes from disable to enable.
    942068 After using a dynamic port policy to remove or add a port, the profile was not updated after the user logged out of the EAP session.
    944076 Enabling DHCP snooping for an 802.1x dynamic VLAN does not work for FS-6xxF models.
    950123 The HTTP and HTTPS daemon randomly returns “Forbidden” error pages on the FS-548D-FPOE model.
    995314 Many log messages about the FortiLink daemon are generated when the admin HTTP and HTTPS port numbers are changed from the default values.
    996521 The FortiGate configuration takes a long time to synchronize with the FortiSwitch configuration.
    998582 The FortiGate device is not pushing the LLDP, VLAN, and static-route settings to the managed FortiSwitch units.
    999421 LLDP allocates Power over Ethernet (PoE) with an extra margin.
    1007601 After upgrading the FS-1024D from FortiSwitchOS 7.2.4 to 7.2.3, editing a physical port in the GUI results in a “500 internal server error.”
    1008119 When using RFC 3433: Entity Sensor Management Information Base, the FortiSwitch units are sending incorrect SNMP values.

    1009840

    After the FS-448E-FPOE model is shut down using the GUI, the switch continues to provide power.

    1010330

    DHCP snooping needs to support 25 VLANs on FS-1xx models.

    1011022

    The FS-648F-FPOE model continuously displays “[/bin/statsd] libsw cpssd not responding Connection refused” messages on the switch console.

    1016325

    After the reauth-period is set to 0, the daemon for 802.1x port-based authentication might use 100% of the CPU.

    1021769

    After DHCP snooping is enabled for a VLAN, the CPU crashes.

    1024992

    The SNMP traps for power supply units (PSUs) do not report which PSU has failed.
