Hello,Planning to upgrade our EMS instance to 7.4.7 (currently on 7.4.5) and one of the ‘new features’ listed for 7.4.6 is hiding the SSLVPN feature by default (https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.4.0/new-features/483736/ssl-vpn-feature-select-option-is-hidden-by-default-7-4-6). With one of our Remote Access profiles including an SSLVPN profile, does anyone know the expected behavior or impact this may have?IE, once the upgrade is completed, will re-connected endpoints lose their SSLVPN configuration from the remote access profile? We are planning to re-enable the SSLVPN feature post upgrade via the cli commands provided but want to plan accordingly if the upgrade may wipe out the configuration until the feature is re-enabled. I would anticipate we will have some sslvpn connections active during the upgrade and don't want active users to get booted unintentionally. Thanks!

FirewallFirmware: v7.4.11 build2878 We use a dedicated alert mailbox in our Microsoft 365 tenant for all device and system alerts, and it is already functioning correctly with multiple services.I configured the FortiGate firewall to use this same mailbox, following the same SMTP settings used on our other devices. After triggering a test alert, no email was sent.I reviewed Entra ID sign‑in logs and did not see any authentication attempts from the firewall. I also checked message trace and mail flow logs, with no record of an attempted send, while the previously configured devices continue to work normally.I also set the email “From” address as recommended, but this did not change the behavior.config:config system email-server    set server "smtp.office365.com"    set port 587    set authenticate enable    set username "alerts@ourcomanyname"    set password ********************    set security smtpsend  

Hello all. Apologies if this has been discussed before and I failed to locate it. I just received a used FG-60F and registered it without any issues. When looking at my assets section, all subscriptions appear to be expired on this device, which I was expecting. Once I reset the unit with the button on back and went to the GUI, I noticed something odd. Being new to the FortiGate, I thought I should ask if this is going to be a problem before purchasing a license. On the 60F GUI, it shows that there is FortiCare coverage to an account that isn't mine. I would have thought that my ability to register the 60F indicates that the device has been unregistered from other accounts although I could certainly be mistaken due to my ignorance on such matters. My question is: If I purchase a UTP or ATP license, is this going to create a licensing problem with FortiCare coverage or will it simply apply the new license and show it as covered with FortiCare under my account?I would very much appreciat

Hello guys, What will happen to my fortimail once licenses expire?Will it be able still to send/relay emails?What about protection, antispam, content and URL filtering? Thank you in advance.

Hello,I am currently working with FortiManager Cloud (7.4) and FortiGate devices running in multi‑VDOM mode.I would like to know whether it is possible to hide or exclude specific VDOMs on FortiManager Cloud, so that:they are not visible in the Device Manager,  they do not consume a device / VDOM license, while still existing on the FortiGate (i.e. without deleting the VDOM on the device itself).From what I understand so far, it looks like:all Traffic‑type VDOMs present on a FortiGate are automatically visible in FortiManager Cloud, each of them is counted as a managed device/VDOM for licensing purposes, and there is no supported way to “unmanage”, hide, or exclude a single VDOM only on the FortiManager Cloud side.Can someone please confirm whether this is indeed not possible on FortiManager Cloud today?And if so, is there any official Fortinet documentation or statement that explicitly confirms this behavior or limitation?Thanks in advance for your clarification.Best regards,B-W

So i've recently acquired two FortiAP-221c's with POE injectors and I am having a little bit of trouble finding out what seems to be simple information. Maybe one of you can help me out. If I were to put one (or both) of these AP's in my home, what would I NEED to make them work. Is a Fortigate required because of the built in Wireless controller? I know they need to be authorized to enable the antennas, is a fortigate or VM software the only options I have?

Hello, I have a 40F.Default config has a virtual hardware switch called "lan" whose member interfaces are: "lan1", "lan2" and "lan3".I would like to remove those member interfaces from the "lan" switch using Ansible. Do you know how to do that ? https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/fortinet/fortios/fortios_system_virtual_switch_module.html#examples I tried the tasks bellow, leaving the port empty, but no success.If I specify just one port, like lan1, it removes the others.

Hi Everybody,I just installed a new Forti Client EMS 7.4.6 installation with a trial license on VMWare.EMS is nicely setup, using a signed cert etc.Now when trying to make a installer package i'm unable to do that.According to the documentation and EMS training I should be able to select between "Create installer " and "Create installer config" but don't get that option.It just let's me go through the creat installer wizard and at teh end I just can do a "download".Is it something i'm doing wrong or is it some bug/feature on a newly released version (released at 17-3-2026) as usual with FortiNet? referenced documentation was the ems 7.4 training and the EMS 7.4.6 quickstart guide: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.4.6/ems-quickstart-guide/942839 Kind regardsRoger Beurskens

I have performed multiple FortiEMS upgrades over the past year,s tarting from 6.4.7, and the FortiEMS server version was always the same as the Forticlient installer package version.That is not the case with 7.4.7. The installer package version is 7.4.6.I find that confusing..Is an installer package 7.4.7 in the works?

How do i find the status of All VPNs in FortiAnalyzer ?

I've followed the instructions in https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.2.0/new-features/792170/entra-id-integration-7-2-1 and ended up creating 2 separate Enterprise Applications where one was used to configure the Client Secret (for the Administration > Authentication Server), and the other was used for the SAML URLs (for User Management > SAML Configuration). While this works, and I am able to register FortiClients by authenticating against Entra ID, I wonder if I did it  correctly. Could this have been a single Enterprise Application? Or if not, and they had to be separate, what is the Enterprise Application with the Client Secret used for?And what is the Enterprise Application with the SAML URLs used for? Also what is this?To configure the Azure tenant app for initiating passthrough (domain):Is this an alternative to registering an Entra ID user's endpoint to EMS using SAML (which is my goal)?

I have problems with a policy where I include an application control where I block access to facebook, youtube and others, one of the applications that I allow within the control is whatsapp but it has presented problems since yesterday, the attached files are not They send and the messages are sent several minutes later, the same as when receiving. I have been doing tests and by allowing the known applications the whatsapp starts working correctly, someone could help me know what the problem is if everything was working well until yesterday that I present this inconvenient.   My device is a Fortigate 90D The only categories that I have blocked in the control of applications are: Botnet, Game, P2P, Social.Media, Update, Video/Audio and Unknown applications (now in monitor mode for whatsapp work) The other categories are in monitor mode

Hi all,I currently have the following setup:FortiManager Cloud → FortiGate → FortiLink → FortiSwitchAll configuration is pushed via FortiManager templates.What would be the best practice to safely remove a FortiSwitch from the FortiGate in this scenario? Thanks.

Hello team!!! Some time ago I asked some questions here about FGT-Entra ID synchronization using SAMLNow finally I could make it work with Fortinet Support.Just 1 question about this:When the user will be prompted to enter credentials again? I tried restarting the Client OS and the credentials were not asked, just were asked the first time I tried to navigate. Thanks in advance.Regards,Damián  I just tes 

Hello, in one of our branches we have this FG60F cluster and we have problems. It is a critical one, not more than 20 users but it is a warehouse with antennas and we need 24x7. Some months ago it entered in conserve mode and we dont really know what the people there did, but we had problems to get the HA working again. After that we deactivated IPS, SSL, etc. and some other memory issued configurations but at the end we updated the cluster to 7.4.5 and after that the memory usage in general was much lower. We checked and it was always between 50-55%. This morning it happened again and right now they are using the slave unit (we dont know yet what the guys did). I wanted to check System Events in Forticloud since we removed local logging but I dont see any information there for the master unit. Any suggestions? It seems crazy that we use a cluster and with this conserve mode issue we loose basically both FGs. Thanks! 

Hello everyone, I would like to know what's the network's behaviour when FortiNAC is down (unrecheable) or doing a firmware upgrade ? Are the users stuck in the isolation VLAN or the behaviour is as if FortiNAC never existed ? Is FNAC 7.2.7 version stable, or should I upgrade to the latest versions 7.6.x ? BR,

Hi everyone! We have an existing FG 501E which we'll be decommissioning in a few weeks. We plan on replacing it with FG 100F. In order to lessen the risk and errors, I plan on backing up the old firewall config and just restore it to a newly factory-reset FG100F.However, our existing 501E has Global, and 2 vdoms(including root). On the 100F, we plan on NOT using a vdom. Just put everything in global configuration. Question:1. Is it possible to backup and restore this properly?2. Is it possible to not use a VDOM and just put everything in global config?

Hello,I would like to understand the behavior of the network when FortiNAC becomes unreachable or stops (service down).In this scenario:What happens to the access ports on the switches?Do they fall back to the default VLAN automatically?Are already authenticated endpoints still allowed to communicate, or are they impacted?Also:What are the best practices or recommendations to handle this situation?Is there a way to ensure continuity (fail-open vs fail-close behavior)?Any feedback or real-world experience would be appreciated.Thank you.

Working on a FortiManager–FortiGate integration scenario and observed an interesting behavior — looking for insights from the community.I configured the following directly on FortiGate:Firewall policiesAddress objects & groupsStatic routesPrefix listsRoute mapsEverything works perfectly on the firewall.However, when I perform “Import Configuration” into FortiManager:Policies, objects, and static routes are imported correctlyPrefix list and route map names appear, but their entries/content are missingOn the other hand, when I perform a “Retrieve Configuration”, I can see the full configuration including prefix list and route map entries.So the questions:Why does FortiManager import process not fully bring in prefix list / route map configurations?Is this expected behavior (device-level vs policy-level separation), or a limitation/bug?What is the recommended production approach to manage routing objects like prefix lists via FortiManager?Would appreciate insights from anyone who has
