If the data traffic contains VLAN-tagged packets, you must add the VLAN tags to
the FortiSwitch-5003A interfaces that will handle the VLAN-tagged traffic. For
example, to allow VLAN tags 300 to 305 on slots 9, 11, and 13 and the F7 front
panel interface, from the FortiSwitch-5003A CLI enter:
config switch fabric-channel interface
edit "slot-9"
set allowed-vlans 1,300-305
next
edit "slot-11"
set allowed-vlans 1,300-305
next
edit "slot-13"
set allowed-vlans 1,300-305
next
edit "f7"
set allowed-vlans 1,300-305
end

Note: On some versions of the FortiGate-5001A firmware, when a FortiGate-5001A board
starts up with a FortiGate-RTM-XB2 module installed, the fabric1 and fabric2 interfaces are
replaced with interfaces that are named RTM/1 and RTM/2 to indicate the presence of the
FortiGate-RTM-XB2 module. Configuration settings that include the fabric1 and fabric2
interface names will have to be changed to use the RTM/1 and RTM/2 interface names.
