All I want to achieve at the moment is to configure an IP on port 1 from the console connection in order to then be able to manage the Fortigate remotely through the GUI. #config system global set internal-switch-mode switch endīut this command isn't accepted on the 60F and doesn't work. I'm wondering if this is my problem and have tried to change to 'switch mode' using the command below as I'd prefer to have 5 individual interfaces. I've done a bit more reading and noticed that on the 60F interfaces 1-5 are bundled as the 'internal' interface. I've even tried disabling STP on the 'internal' interface with no luck. I'm not sure why this is happening as my understanding was that by default the Fortigate ships in NAT routed mode so shouldn't be sending any BPDUs out of interfaces.
