Hi I have Fortigate 500d with 5.6.2. When captive portal without any authentication is enabled on an interface and someone clicks through the disclaimer page an Undefined user gets listed in the Monitor > Firewall Users page in the firewall. This also makes it so that page will not load it just sits with the loading icon forever. Can anyone else verify this happens with their system as well.  

Hi all, I need to set up a disclaimer only captive portal for our public wifi users. Now the thing is that our wifi infrastructure is based on Cisco and I want to use the FortiGate as default gateway for our public wifi. I need the FortiGate to provide the captive portal and to do the traffic filtering. This means that I want to set up the captive portal on the lan interface of the FortiGate where the wifi traffic comes in. I don't want an authentification captive protal it just has to be a disclaimer that the user has to accept so he can connect to the internet. Unfortunatley I am only able to choose "Authentication Portal Local or External" and there is no option to choose the disclaimer only type. How can I solve this? Thanks for your help! Br, Alex 

Hello, I have a FortiGate 60E, but I need to add 2 devices on the LAN, that works as WAN, instead of the WAN port, that has only one port. Can I create a Hardware switch interface, add two physical ports and use it as WAN ?? I mean, as a L2 interface with a virtual IP included ? Thanks

Have a Fortigate 60D running 5.6.3.In the User Groups I have three groups, I can edit two of the groups but when I try to edit the third group I get the spinning ball of death.Nothing happens. Is there a way around this?

Hi,I know, it's possible in Fortigate that user could get Authentication Page prior to accessing the internet. But i want to know if it is possible that user would get the 'Logout' page after work is done and the user itself will Logout so that the bandwidth will not be used and there will be no load on network. The user could be a AD or Workgroup.Thank You

I have a test environment that has restricted navigation, I would like to avoid sending the logs to forticloud because the are confusing when looking for something.Is there any way to exclude that interface or a range of ips from sending the logs?

I have a problem with the SSL VPN application. The application does not contain some security headers. X-XSS-Protection X-Content-Type-Options Strict-Transport-Security I opened the call with the support, but the attendant did not help with anything effective. Just said that there are some fixes in version 5.4.8. So I asked him to send me the result in the "curl -I https: //IP_OF_FOTIOS_5.4.8: PORT_OF_SSL_VPN --insecure" command, as evidenced by this being corrected.  Note that the headers are not present in the response sent by the support. So no correction was applied for this.As an example, I put the output of the command executed in google, showing how it should be a safe response. I would like to know if anyone knows if this is configurable in FORTIOS, and how does it work? I have FG 80C.

Hi experts, How can Application Control detect applications over encrypted traffic? I am using Application Control and works fine, I can block youtube videos, facebook and so on, over HTTPS, so the traffic is encrypted. But I am not enabling deep inspection and it can detects applications anyway. How can Application Control do this without enabling deep inspection? Regards,Julián

Dear IT Folks, I'm facing with issue while trying to allow https URL on my FW Fortigate 300C. I'm using v5.2.13,build762 (GA).Firstly, due to company policy, we have to block all of URL. I was set up URL ="*", Type=Wildcard, Action="Block"; Hence, no one can access to internet.However, I allow multiple certain URL for accessing. For example: I was set URL= *.meeting.nice2meet.us/*, Type=Wildcard, Action="Allow".But user can only access it if those website is using HTTP, they cannot access if website using HTTPS.Please help me to take a glance and give me some idea.Thanks a bunch.

Hi,I'm planning upgrade 600c cluster from 5.2.11 to 5.4.8 firmware.

I'm trying to configure IPsec VPN on a Fortigate 80C, and on a Cisco ASA 5505 firewall. Fortigate 80C is running v4.0, build0646, and Cisco ASA 5505 is running 8.2(5), with ASDM 7.12.I configured Site-to-Site on ASA and assigned a peer IP address of the FortiGate unit. I assigned a pre-shared key as well. ASA and FortiGate, both have matching pre-shared keys and identical phase 1 and phase 2 settings. When I log into FortiGate using web interface, I go to Log & Report and click on Event Log. For Action I see negotiate with a message saying IPsec phase 1 error, and Error Reason no matching gateway for new request. It has ID 37124.  ASA can ping outside WAN IP 172.16.1.6, ASA can also ping IP 192.168.131.77 located inside its LAN network.FortiGate can ping outside ASA IP 172.16.1.3, and it's internal LAN of IP 192.168.161.7.My goal is to be able to ping from FortiGate internal IP 192.168.161.7 to ASA's internal IP 192.168.131.77.Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm wil

In the process of upgrading a FortiGate 60E from 5.4.6 to 5.4.7. It looks as though I need to get a special build to do this as the upgrade page of the UI says that I can not upgrade from FortiOS v5.4.7 build1167 from FortiOS v5.4.6 build6408. I presume that I need to download FortiOS v5.4.7 build6453. Is this correct? While looking for the correct image to download I noticed a listing for 5.4.8.https://support.fortinet....ad/FirmwareImages.aspx Has this been released? Has anyone tried 5.4.8 yet?

Hello,Can you enligth me on this problem, I have a Fortigate 80E and I have also many switch, I need to connect my switch on the fortigate ( with VLAN 192.168.1.X/24 ) for example , and I also have an equipment directly connected to the fortigate from the same vlan (192.168.1.XX/24).It is possible to make a solution on the fortigate to connect these two equipment ?I tried to make an hardware switch (IP :0.0.0.0) and a VLAN( ip :192.168.1.X) on the hardware switch but It don't work (vlan work but not the equipment).I also tryed only an hardware switch (IP 192.168.1.X) but only the equipment work and not the VLAN.Do you have an idea about this problem and how I can solve it ? Nathan

Hello,I am trying to know if it is possible to do SDWAN for Internet trafic and trafic going through two IPsec tunnels (the endpoint on the other side will be MX Meraki).  The remote subnets for the two IPsec tunnels will be the same so if i am configuring static routes for this same subnet with as next hop the two tunnel interfaces (route-based vpn), I do not think I will be able to loadbalance the trafic, there will be always a preferred route and I will not have atcive-active links for VPN IPsec trafic. But with the SDWAN feature, maybe there is a subtility which can make this possible :) So the purpose is to loadbalance the Internet trafic and VPN trafic between the two WAN interfaces thanks to the SDWAN feature. Besides, I do not have a way to test it for the moment so this is just a theoritical question.  Thanks in advance, Thomas

I have two types of traffic using the same ports but need to filter in different ways and not sure exactly on the best way to do this. I will explain below: What I want to achieveWeb browsing (80/443) should be restricted to a specific site (bbc.co.uk for example)Citrix Reciever (80/443) should be restricted to certain IP Addresses This applies to all pcs on network  Where I'm at[ul]I have a IPv4 policy with web filtering for specific site allowing all HTTP/HTTPS traffic (as the sites IP changes regularly)I have a second IPv4 policy allowing traffic on 80/443 if going to specific IP Addresses[/ul] For some reason application control does not seem to work as thats what I initially tried and Ive tried the policies in different orders to see if that fixes it but understand they will be conflicting but there must be a way i'm missing?

Hi all, I was looking through the forum and couldn't find any similar discussion. Please let me know if this has been addressed elsewhere. I am working with a customer who is very particular when it comes to Active Directory permissions for service accounts. When using Regular binding for LDAP servers (using FSSO in polling mode), what are the minimum permissions I can assign to the bind account for the solution to function properly? I have tried using regular users before and it didn't work so since then I have always used Domain Admin privileges. Unfortunately this won't fly with these guys. Thanks!Xavier

Hi,  We newly connected via IPsec VPN with multiple subnets on both sides. I used the VPN Wizzard to establish the VPN and the Tunnelstatus shows up But of course this is only an indication of the whole as multiple Phase 2 Selectors have been entered. Most of it is working fine. But yes you guessed it 1 of the 9 Subnets on my side is unreachable.Is there a way to see the status of the indvidual Phase 2 Selectors ??

Hello, i have a FortiGate 60E (v5.6.3 build1547 (GA)) and i want to kick clients out of my network after 30 mins, and i don't want them to reconnect until 24 hour is passed. any advice?Thanks in advance. 

HI FortiGuys, One of my clients wanted to block fb but without using ssl inspection as he didn't want to install the cert to 100s of his staff computers. I explained that with that there would be no other way to get it done. Then to convince the client I opened a fortinet ticket and got the same response that this can't be done without the ssl inspection and cert installation. Now this guy hired some other service provider and those guys simply blocked social media signatures in app control and applied it to the policy and IT HAS WORKED. It doesn't say "fortiguard blocked" but just keeps the loading icon spinning and fb doesn't load at all. The whole situation is turning so embarrassing. Please tell me if this is a proper workaround? Will this work in the long term? How is this even working, looks like the browser simply doesn't complete the request in some way. Please any explanation here, thanks.
