Solved

Hi All,I am having some issues with websites not rendering correctly behind a Fortigate 200D (5.0.7) Basically the pages are screwed up with text over the top of other text and the layout of the page changing. I have attached an image of what I see for reference.  The only features that are turned on on the Fortigate are, WiFi and Switch Controller and Web Filter. I have tried disabling the web filter and this made no difference. I'm hoping someone else has seen this behaviour and knows of a fix ThanksRob

Can someone tell me, which algorithm uses fortinet to choose between two suppliers connected one in each wan? How it makes the desition?  Thanks 

Administration Guide says "Server Override Mode Select Strict (Access Override Server Only) or Loose (Allow Access Other Servers) override mode. " and CLI documentation for "config fmupdate server-override-status" isn't much more helpful. Clarification of what this does, would be much appreciated.

Hi All, We recently started installing the Forticlient due to a virus outbreak that was not caught by Symantec.  On top of the virus, for a week I have been dealing with random IGMP storms on the LAN and I cannot seem to track it down.  I was worried a couple of our servers had something malicious on them that was causing them to send out all this traffic.  It would cripple our server vLAN and it is very random.  Sometimes I can do a day without any storms, but other times it happens an hr or two after rebooting the servers. I did find one post about someone having a broadcast, or multicast storm and it was the Forticlient that seemed to be the culprit.  Has anyone else noticed this type of behavior, especially when installed on a VMware VM? I started installing two new Server 2012 VM's on Friday.  The only thing I installed, aside from Windows updates, was the Forticlient and later on the network was flooded with IGMP traffic again.  I

Hi, I am new with Fortigate. Fine product. But I have the follow challange.I have 8 public ip addresses and one to assigen one public address to a guest lan.Should I use Vdom's? What is the best way to accomplish this? using a Foritgate 100D Thanks in advance.

Hello,We have run into a problem with a custom dataset, and we don't know how to solve it. It would be great if someone with good query-skills could have a look at it. A customer wants a more detailed version of the "threat-Top-Virus-Source"-dataset, where srccountry also should be listed. We suspect that the problem is that "srccountry" only exists in the DB "log-traffic", not in "log-virus", but we are pretty clueless about what to do right now... The original dataset "threat-Top-Virus-Source":[code lang=sql]select srcip, hostname, sum(totalnum) as totalnum from (###(select srcip, hostname, count(*) as totalnum from $log-traffic where $filter and logid_to_int(logid) not in (4, 7, 14) and utmevent is not null and virus is not null group by srcip, hostname order by totalnum desc)### union all ###(select srcip , ipstr(`dstip`) as hostname, count(*) as totalnum from $log-virus where $filter and (eventtype is null or logver>=52) and nullifna(virus) is not null group by srcip,

Good afternoon. I am not a networking guru, so I hope ask these questions in the correct manner. I have a port that I want open and forwarding to a specific client machine. I have gone through and done the VIP, VIP Group and entered the policy. Everything seems good according to what I read in the cookbook. Running v4.0 MR3 Patch 12. When I do an external port test, I get a time out error, and that the port is not available.  Subscriptions are not up to date. Am I missing something to open this specific port?  Lets say it is port 4080.  Is there a specific area in the panel that I need to specifically open that port before port forwarding will even work, or is the set up of port forwarding essentially opening that port? I just know there is also the Services\Custom set up, and I have done nothing in that area... Help is deeply appreciated.

FG-100D is configured with two WANs combined via WLLB. ISP for WAN1 has been flaky lately, dropping out for 30 seconds or so occasionally. I expected traffic to be immediately routed to WAN2, but in reality I have to manually disable WAN1 in the GUI in order for this to happen. The relevant parts of the config is below. I'm trying to determine whether I have something configured incorrectly in the Fortigate, or if the misconfiguration is occurring between my ears. Thanks in advance.

We left setting up our wireless networks for after we had the pre-existing wired networks duplicated and working when we made the switch from Cisco to Fortinet. It seems now that this may have been a mistake.We want 2 networks. One for guests, and one for corporate users. The one for guests is no problem. It's up and running. The one for corporate users isn't.We'd like the corporate wifi to be on the same network as the internal wired network. The problem is that this was already setup as it's own dedicated interface. From what I've read, the usual solution is to make the wired and wireless part of the same virtual switch. This isn't an option for us due to the current setup.How can I make the wireless bridge that internal network? Or maybe make that wireless network separate, but have access to the internal network as if it was a member?

Folks - Exchange 2010 lets you restrict use of internal Distribution Lists to authenticated *senders* only.  However, when an outside user replies to a message that includes the internal distribution list as well as external addresses, Exchange allows that message. This leads to unwanted Reply to All scenarios occuring. Can I blocked mail to ADistributionList@ourdomain.com, where ourdomain.com is a protected domain in our Fortimail configuration? Running Fortimail v5.2, Build 404. Thanks for any assistance, it is appreciated.  I did review the admin manual but wasn't able to find any item which appeared germane. Regards - Pete

Hi, I am trying to create a report from a filter/view on the Traffic Log page in Log View. The steps I am taking is as follows:1) Add Filter > Service: SMTP 2) Add Filter > Destination Country: China3) Last 30 days. I get the results back that I expect, all SMTP traffic going to China.4) Tools > Chart Builder 5) Give it a name "SMTP to China". 6) Keep all over settings as deafult, preview appears, click Save. Receive a message stating "Error in creating the chart and dataset" I'm not sure what I am doing wrong, and don't currently have the knowedge of FAZ to create this report myself. Any ideas? This is a FAZ-300D running v5.4.1-build1082 160629 (GA)

I've searched for a long moment but couldn't find answer to my question below.  It would be nice if someone could help me. I have a FortiGate 80c whose firmware (O/S) is vers 4.3.15.  Its web management UI is using some default certificate.  Of course, I could:1. put an exception in every browser I'm using to manage the device, or2. import the certificate to every browser I'm using But I think there's a 3rd option: use a better certificate with a well-known CA.  However, I'm unable to see where I1. I assign the SSL certificate,2. I import this SSL certificate (in System > Certificates > Local Certificates like those cert for SSL-VPN?) Thanks in advance NB: In case it's not clear, I'm not talking about the SSL certificate assigned to SSL-VPN.

Hi I have fortigate 60D running 5.4.12 fortiswitches 124D with S124DN-v3.4-build192 running2 forti aps 321 with FP321C-v5.4-build0339. the fortiaps are connectect through the fortiswitches with the fortigate. The reason why I bought fortinet solutions because of the good security and the central management.Problem is that the capwap tunnels are instable. Once they are up they stay up, but dont reboot any of the systems or you risk that switch or AP is not able to establish capwap again. date=2016-07-28 time=19:16:29 logid=0100022900 type=event subtype=system level=notice vd=root logdesc="CAPUTP session status" msg="session join: S124DN3W15000064 is connected date=2016-07-28 time=19:16:19 logid=0100026001 type=event subtype=system level=information vd=root logdesc="DHCP Ack log" interface="root-sw" dhcp_msg="Ack" mac=08:5B:0E:E4:68:BA ip=169.254.254.2 lease=604800 hostname="S124DN3W15000064" msg="DHCP server sends a DHCPACK" date=2016-07-28 time=19:16:10 log

We have a need to use VDOMs, which I'm not currently using. I have a fairly extensive configuration (IPSec, VPN clients, email and web filtering, etc.).  When enabling  VDOMs, what exactly happens to my current configuration?  If I have all that sort of logic set up, how disruptive is it going to be?  I'd like to get my current config going in a single VDOM before I start experimenting with an additional VDOM.   The documentation is kind of unclear about this, so forgive me if this is a FAQ that I just can't locate a good answer to.  I'm a total newbie with VDOMs, and don't have an extra Fortigate to use in a lab so I'm unfortunately experimenting with production here.  Thanks in advance! - Steve 

In fortiOS 5.4, how to link a schedule to a Traffic Shaping Policy ? Thank's 

Hi, thank you for your time...someone told me that there is a solution for setting Quota in New FortiOS, but i can't find anything to do that.i just want to know, is there anyway to set Quota for my local internet users, or not?thank you.

i am not new to the Fortigate line of routers but have questions regarding IPS and how/when to implement it. if i am configuring a new fortigate router for a client that has a small office network /w domain server (IE: 10pc / 1DC)  how should IPS be implemented...if need be?  port forwards that would be set up for the server would be port 80 and port 443 and nothing for the desktop clients except maybe RDP access. #1 would it be needed?#2 would i just apply the default IPS filter on the WAN to LAN policy for the port forward? any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,Gary.

Hi all good news for everyone which uses SSL Offloading with Virtual Server. FortiOS 5.2.8 is supporting new TLS 1.2 which was until now not the case and which is only the case under FortiOS 5.4 All devices which are able to use SSL Offloading (consult software matrix) have under FortiOS 5.2.8 this possibility.# get system status | grep VersionVersion: FortiGate-300D v5.2.8,build0727,160629 (GA) # config firewall vip(vip) # edit testnew entry 'test' added(test) # set type server-load-balance(test) # set server-type https(test) # set ssl-min-versionssl-3.0 SSL 3.0.tls-1.0 TLS 1.0.tls-1.1 TLS 1.1.tls-1.2 TLS 1.2. hope this helps have fun Andrea

Will the FG-TRAN-GC (1000baseTX) SFP work in the SFP+ port of an 800C?   I can do this with Cisco SFP+ ports.  They will take any 1Gig or 10Gig SFP. You may be asking why.  Why use the SFP+ port when you have 4 other SFP 1Gig ports available.  I have 2 Fortigate 800C devices in HA.  One 800C is at the main site and the other is connected at the DR site.  HA runs over a 1Gig dedicated fiber.  The switch at the main site can utilize 10Gig, but the switch at the DR site does not have 10Gig ports.   Thanks

Hi there, I want to know what does the Message " replay packet(allow_err), drop" exactly mean? I have a problem with updating my branch offices Antiviruses which are connected to head office through fortigate 400A. In the section of log access of fortianalyzer,deny logs for antivirus update, all have replay packet(allow_err), drop message. all the policy and network configurations are correct. thank you for the help.

Hi, at first a happy new year to all. I have a Problem when i enable ssl deep-Inspection and surfing through the Web. I noticed that some sites loading only if i reload the site twice. Sometimes but not often I get a "ssl_error_bad_mac_read" error in Firefox. It also went gone when I reload the site. It is relative often reproducible when I am surfing through the fortinet forum. I am using the build in fortinet proxy certificate which CA is certainly imported in the browser under trusted ca authorities I have checked this with some other browsers and on other machines to rule out that it is a browser/machine problem only. The goal why i have enabled deep inspection is to use antivirus in https. Allow Invalid SSL Certificates and Log Invalid Certificates are both enabled but I get no errors. Like I said it is not on all sites but when I noticed that and loading process was too long then I reload the site and now it comes up. Then I figured out when deep-inspection is turned off th

After Update of OS to 5.4.1 the Fotigate(800C) won't register forticlients anymore. Error message from Forticlient:  Forticlient is actively blocking this forticlient form registering. Endpoint Event: FortiClient registration failed due to version too low. VPN provision seams also to be lost from endpoint controll as wel. This is an very bad issue regarded to the fact that our company has lost endpoint control of several hundred client's. Best RegardTrond-Ove
