FortiLink access-profile setting

The new FortiLink local-access profile controls access to the physical interface of a FortiSwitch that is managed by FortiGate.

After upgrading FortiGate to 6.2.7, the interface allowaccess configuration on all managed FortiSwitches are overwritten by the default FortiGate local-access profile. You must manually add your protocols to the local-access profile after upgrading to 6.2.7.

To configure local-access profile:

config switch-controller security-policy local-access
    edit [Policy Name]
        set mgmt-allowaccess https ping ssh
        set internal-allowaccess https ping ssh
    next
end

To apply local-access profile to managed FortiSwitch:

config switch-controller managed-switch
    edit [FortiSwitch Serial Number]
        set switch-profile [Policy Name]
        set access-profile [Policy Name]
    next
end
