Trying to apply dynamic_sort_subtable = "false" results in a failure

[donnieelmore]

I recently started terraforming our Fortswitch. Wrote the config to match what we have configured already and imported all resources to Terraform. One thing that is showing as a discrepancy is dynamic_sort_subtable = "false" on several different resources, no matter what I set the setting to it shows a changed. That is fine though, we'd seen things like this with other providers. However when I go to apply this setting it fails and dump the following stack trace:

donnie.elmore:~/git/terraform/fortiswitch (main)$ terraform apply -parallelism=1 -target=fortiswitch_systemsnmp_community.snmp
module.global_variables.data.vault_generic_secret.fortiswitch_credentials: Reading...
module.global_variables.data.vault_generic_secret.fortiswitch_credentials: Read complete after 0s [id=networking/switch001]
fortiswitch_systemsnmp_community.snmp: Refreshing state... [id=2]

Terraform used the selected providers to generate the following execution plan. Resource actions are indicated with the following symbols:
  ~ update in-place

Terraform will perform the following actions:

  # fortiswitch_systemsnmp_community.snmp will be updated in-place
  ~ resource "fortiswitch_systemsnmp_community" "snmp" {
      + dynamic_sort_subtable = "false"
        id                    = "2"
        name                  = "switch001_snmp"
        # (13 unchanged attributes hidden)

        # (1 unchanged block hidden)
    }

Error: The terraform-provider-fortiswitch_v1.1.2 plugin crashed!

This is always indicative of a bug within the plugin. It would be immensely
helpful if you could report the crash with the plugin's maintainers so that it
can be fixed. The output above should help diagnose the issue.

Hi @donnieelmore ,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. It seems to be caused by a data type mismatch in block host6. I have reported this to the development team, along with your previous inquiry. We sincerely appreciate your continued support of our provider. Let me know if you still have other questions.

Thanks, Maxx
