Configure the site1_mclag1 switch

Follow these steps on the site1_mclag1 FortiSwitch unit in the MCLAG peer group:
  1. Enable FortiLink mode.

    config system global

    set switch-mgmt-mode fortilink

    end

  2. Set the switch-controller discovery type to DHCP.

    config switch-controller global

    set ac-discovery-type dhcp

    config switch interface

    edit port8

    set fortilink-l3-mode enable

    end

    config switch trunk

    edit "__FoRtILnk0L3__"

    set mode lacp-active

    config switch interface

    edit "__FoRtILnk0L3__"
