Technical Tip: FortiGate OT IPS application filter configurations is not visible

1. Go to System -> FortiGuard and check if the OT Security Service is showing as 'Not Licensed'.

2. On the same page, check that FortiGuard Updates is enabled:

3. Select 'Update Licenses & Definitions Now'.

4. After the license is installed automatically by FortiGuard, its status will change to 'Licensed'.

5. For the version of 'OT device identification definitions' and 'OT vulnerability correlation definitions & virtual patching signatures' to be updated. Make sure the following settings are applied:
   
   

• OT signature is included in the IPS setting:
  

config ips global

    set exclude-signatures none

end

• Enable device detection on at least one interface:

config system interface
    edit <name>
        set device-identification enable
    next
end

Note:

The version numbers for some licenses may not change, and this is a normal behavior.
