Solved

We have 2 FortiAuthenticators in seperate locations in an HA load balance. If the site that is listed in our fortigates as the primary server experiences an outage, Wifi connection is unsuccessful. I can see in the debug logs for the remaining FAC that the authentication is processed successfully but the fortigate/fortiAP is unable to successfully connect. Sites that have the remaining FortiAuth as primary instead of secondary connect successfully.   My working theory is that the remote auth failure time is too long to fail over to the secondary server for the WPA authentication to process successfully and establish a successful connection. Has anybody run in to anything similar?

I just need to confirm that the FWF-40F has a single radio and that if I want to have multiple SSIDs using different bands 2.4GZ or 5.0GHZ, you have to do one or the other BUT NOT both?  To do both, the next product available is the FWF-80F-2R or is this some other router/firewall/ap product I am not finding?

Hi,We have a Fortigate 601E on ver 6.4.13 manged by a FortiManager on ver 7.4.1. There is a discrepancy between what Webfilter categories are on each device and when I select to block on a category that is not on the Fortigate it gives me the following message:- post commit check fail: filters - 26 - invalid category id: Is there any way to manually create this category on the Fortigate? It stops me pushing policy whilst this issue exists.Thanks.

How is SD-WAN enabled on a FG device?Is there an explicit switch somewhere to turn it on?Or is it implicitly turned on by creating one or more SD-WAN zones and SD-WAN rules?Thanks.....

Good day!Would like to check if we can now rename the FortiSIEM admin account.We want to rename it since we dont want to use "admin" as username.Thank you.

Hey, everybody!anyone have any experience? I set up an ipsec tunnel between FG and AWS. The tunnel is up, static route and policies are in place. Ping from aws to fg is pinging. but from fg to aws is not.I started looking, I saw an outgoing ip during the ping from the management port. although it is not even connected. there is no such route. even if I turn off the mgmt port, traffic to the tunnel still comes from it. I put 0.0.0.0.0/0 on the mgmt port.Now traffic started coming from FortiLink port (802.3ad Aggregate), also disabled port, also put 0.0.0.0.0/0 ip on it. now traffic went to vpn tunnel from wan port. How can this be fixed? I don't have such routes, does fg make them up by itself)?model 400F - os v7.2.6

Hello, this is the first time I use Forticlient.When I establish a VPN connection, I can reach the server but I can't navigate internet from my PC.Is there a way to solve this issue without make changes on the Forticlient server side? I'm using Windows 10.Please, give me puntual instructions as I am not expert in configuring net and firewalls.Thank you

We recently moved a clients local server infrastructure to a collocate.  Currently they are connected to the infrastructure over a site-to-site VPN (soon to be a point-to-point connection).   As a result, their RADIUS server (NPS) is now across the VPN tunnel.  Their main site (outside the Collocate) has a number of FortiAPs that were configured to use WPA/Enterprise with the RADIUS server.  This stopped working after we converted them and I've been trying to fix this and we've temporarily implemented a different wireless network for them to work.  I can't seem to get the RADIUS working across the tunnel.   It seems to me - if I can control what IP the local Fortigate sends out to the Collocate, and the NPS servers, I should be able to resolve this by configuring the NPS server with a client corresponding to the IP.  I don't see anything in the NPS logs referencing this traffic, so it's like it's not even reaching the server.  The tunnel between

Hi,Any ideas on how to apply a Nat Souce based on the destination port, in version 7.0 with Central SNAT enabled?In version 7.4.x, a new functionality was released so that in the Central SNAT policies you define the destination port using the CLI.But in previous versions is there a similar way to do this?It is required that the source IP be changed when the request is made to a specific destination port.Example.When I launch a request from the computer with the IP 192.168.1.10 to destination 10.10.10.5 and destination port 5302, the source ip change 172.16.1.10.When the request is launched between the same source and destination but with a different port (5555), a nat source with 172.16.1.20 is applied.

I did FortiEMS deployment and installed Forticlient for 1000 machines. After I did Vulnerability scanning im got some Vul with Auto and others as manual. My question is, how can I do manual patching through EMS? Is there a way to install the patch from the internet manually and upload the MSI or patch file to EMS to push it automatically to all machines? OR does manual patching mean that users have to do it by themselves only?In addition, can I create a custom message to show to users once they log in to their machines including a message and link to download the patch of vulnerability manually? #ems #vulnerability #patch

I tried disabling 1 interface of another admin computer in Fortigate GUI but it accidently disabled mine too, I couldn't reconnect with changing interfaces, even the console interface didn't work, am I required to reset the device ? 

I have FortiGate v7.2.5, where in the firewall can you whitelist the Pentester IP with the IPS Security Profile. Or is the best way to create a firewall policy to allow that traffic for the engagement?

Hi Everyone,I have a unique and frustrating situation with an ISP that can only provide service via DHCP - and that DHCP is provided by another 3rd party as their last mile provider who refuses to acknowledge their mistake because "it still works for others"I have a remote site fortigate that loses it's WAN DHCP lease every other day or so because the upstream relay is providing an unreachable internal IP (10.x.y.z) as the server and relay IP in the original DHCP lease.  I have packet captures of this and watching the fortigate constantly trying to renew the lease with direct IP packets to this address, obviously being dropped by the next hop.  It's only when the fortigate loses its lease completely and finally falls back to broadcast discovery / requests that its able to recover. Question:  is it at all possible to configure the DHCP Client on the fortigate to do "broadcast requests" for leases exclusively, without trying to renew via unicast?I know this is not the

I have a setup with one FortiManager that today manages internal firewalls. It has an interface connected to a mgmt network where most of our internal networking equipment are connected to. We want to use this FortiManager to also manage other Fortigates from different customers.  My initial plan is to create a private VLAN and let a new interface on the FortiManager be behind a promiscious port,.It's only used for adding the units to the Fortimanager.  My consern is that the FortiManager becomes a bridge between our internal mgmt network and customers mgmt network. Example someone makes a static route on the customer Firewall that points to our internal mgmt network with the FortiManager as next hop. I have not yet found any way to have an ACL directly on the FortiManager and would in this case be only dependent on the customer Fortigate ACL. Another solution would be to route the traffic towards the FortiManager through a firewall, but I want to kee

Hi team,   I´ve installed FortiSOAR, configured some connectors (icluding VirusTotal and IPQuality), created soem playbooks and everyhting seemed working well. Then, I installed the Phsihing Solution Pack and run it. When I opened the indicator "http://demo.gumblar.cn/", I realized the system was to slow to enrich the indicator. So, I opened the Playbook execution viewer and realized the playbook "Enrich Indicators (Type All)" stopped on "Compute Reputation Data" with a Jinja error code (CD-WF-8) - attached.   After that, I went to the Indicators module and tried to create a manual indicator for IP. I´ve created the new indicator, but again realized the Enrichment has stopped int he same playbook step (and same playbook).    I talked to a colleague of mine who suggested me to change the Global Variable "Demo_mode" to false. However, I realized this variable was still as false.   Would like to ask your help for solving this issue. The interesting thing that

Dear community, Maybe anyone else already wrapped his/her around this on FortiSIEM:I am looking for an aggregation function in the analytics/report generation that behaves like the SQL "concat" command, meaning writing all the values of all rows into the single result row.My usecase, to make it a little bit clearer:From the FortiClient EMS, I receive all endpoint's vulnerabilities (search criteria is Event Type = FortiEMS-Vuln-Detected)As Group By/Display Fields, I selected:COUNT DISTINCT( Vulnerability Id )COUNT DISTINCT( Host Name )ProductThis generates a wonderful list of all the products which need to be patched on the endpoints and I can sort it by how many hosts are affected (COUNT DISTINCT( Host Name ) )What I cannot see here, is which hosts exactly I need to go to and patchIf I used "Host Name" as display field, this would obviously split up my list into dozens of single lines with the same product just on another deviceI'd prefer keeping the single line, but instead of&nb

Hi all Have a strange problem with SSL VPN not answering. Have set it up multiple times on other system but only with only one WAN IP. Problem here i think is that it listens on all WAN IP's (11 Wan IPs). Everything is standard otherwise than the port (444) but the service doesn't answer. It's a FG81 running 7.2.5 Best regards Henrik
