Hi, We run 3 firewalls for VPN connections.I created a CR on the first one and we generated a multi SAN certificate which was uploaded and works fine.I tried the same cert on the other two and i get an error saying there is no CR for this certificate.Error message: Uploaded certificate has no matching certificate signing request (CSR)Does each FW require a seperate CR to generate a different multi san cert? TIA :) 

Hello everyone, I came across an information stating that FortiMail retains quarantined emails for 7 or 14 days before they are permanently deleted from the device. Is there a way to extend this retention period, for instance, to one month or so? Best regards,

Alert messages are not received because the recipient address cannot be registered

Hi there, I'm trying to generate an ACME cert on my FortiGate, just as I've done on my EMS server, but it always fails with a "Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)" error:  Port 80 is wide open to the world and you can see the traffic coming in when running a diag sniffer. From me running a curl against http://vpn.<mydomain>.com:  I'm at a loss. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

I have one blocked when the MAC of the machine is not registered in my DHCP reservation it does not browse, would there be any warning when anyone tries to put a machine on my network to warn that it is trying to get IP?

Hi, In fortisase portal we are able to enable scheduled vulnerability scanning. We are checking for the option to enable the auto patching for the vulnerability.We checked fortisase admin guide and not seeing any option of auto patching.Will fortisase do the auto patching like Forticlient EMS ?Please guide..  Regards,Ganesh Karale

Hi,I'm looking to add radius authentication for administrators on the FAC in our deployment, currently we're using simple local users.I would like the Radius request to be sent to a remote radius server, from the FAC. The FortiAuthenticator is running version v6.6.2, build1669 (GA).I can't find any cookbooks or guides on how to enable radius for administrators using a remote radius servers. Is anyone able to provide me with either a guide, or some assistance ?Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, I want the FML administrator(s) to receive a "notification" whenever an email is being quarantined, I thought about creating a notification profile, but I want a notification specific for quarantined emails. Does anyone have a better suggestion ? Thanks in advance Best regards,

I have a hub-spoke setup using BGP in a SDWAN setup. The SDWAN is due to having a fibre connection and a 4G for failover. So obviously I have both under each Zone.HUB -> Spoke1HUB -> Spoke2The hub has a Dialup IPsec tunnel for fibre connection and one for 4G connection to allow multiple connections from all the Spokes.Spoke1 has static IP IPsec VPN connection from its own fibre connection to the fibre connection of the HUB, and Dynamic DNS IPsec tunnel from its own 4G to the HUB's 4G connection. Spoke 2 has the same setup to connect to the HUB. I use BGP to advertise my internal networks of each of the 3 sites. Everything internally is working and the internal networks can talk to each other, including when failing over to 4G. My problem comes in with the FortiClient VPN. At each site I have a Dialup FortiClient VPN setup. When I connect to the remote VPN, I can access only the resources of the LAN at the site I am connected to. I can't talk to other IP ranges

We just had to revert to Forticlient VPN (free) 7.2.8 for IPSec with SAML and we're running into an issue with the inline webbrowser staying logged into the wrong Entra account (we support multiple clients). I can't find a way to clear the cookies. I've used the button within the app, deleted everything I could find in the Appdata\local\forticlient dir. cleared cached for microsoft in Chrome and Edge and Internet Explorer. I can't get it to shake my Entra joined Windows credentials. Does anyone know how to get it so that I get prompted for Microsoft credentials at each login. This was working earlier today and now doesn't.

Hi,I am facing the task of migrating EMS from version 7.2.8 to 7.4.x. If I follow the migration documentation, will the SAML SSO settings also migrate or will I have to re-configure SAML SSO for this installation? RegardsAndrzej

Hi, I read the CVE article below and wonder if I need to upgrade FortiOS:Fortinet Security Advisory: FG-IR-24-535My FortiOS version is 7.0.16, and the HTTP/HTTPS administrative interface is enabled only on the LAN interface (disabled on the WAN interface).Do I need to upgrade FortiOS to protect against this vulnerability?

I am stuck in a situation where I am facing an issue with Google Meet video and voice within the enterprise network.I am using a 100F FortiGate firewall and have created a policy to block all unnecessary traffic from the public internet. Additionally, I have created a policy for Google Meet with no inspection. However, I am still facing the same issue.Can anyone help me with this? Is there any issue with NPU-offloading which is causing the issue in the google meet performance. 1. Implemented QoS for Google Meet, but it did not work.2. Implemented a no-inspection policy to bypass UTM features. #fortigate

So, I have an E61 firewall and it's got a nice SSL VPN on it for my 10 or so users who are in other countries.  These users connect and we are using an LDAP integration for authentication. Today, I found out that people are trying to access the SSL VPN using real usernames from the org, and when they enter the wrong password three times, the user is locked out of Active Directory. For now, the SSL VPN is disabled. I need a solution for this.   My first thought is to get some tokens and enable 2FA. Can some of you experts make some suggestions about how to best mitigate this? Thanks

I need to make it so that when a machine plugs a network cable into my network it can't get an IP via DHCP, but when I register the machine's MAC it can use my NETWORK, how could I do that?

We decided to implement an SD-WAN solution for two branches and the head office. We plan to deploy one FortiGate firewall at each branch and a clustered firewall (HA pair) at the head office. We are facing a licensing issue when attempting to apply a FortiManager Cloud license for this solution due to the clustered device. Can we proceed with a FortiManager Cloud license for three devices for this solution, or do we require a license for ten devices?

Hi,Due to recent vulnerabilities in radius, we would like to enable Message-Authenticator on our clearpass server.After enabling this option in clearpass, we get errors in clearpass that the radius packet received from FortiGate-1100E (v7.2.8 build1639 (Mature) is without Message-Authenticator as below.Is it possible to enable this? Source RADIUSLevel ERRORCategory AuthenticationAction UnknownDescriptionFailed to decode RADIUS packet - Received packet from x.x.x.x without Message-AuthenticatorTIA :) 

Hi folks.I did not found an answer in the following request:FortiGate ver. 7.6 with managed FortiSwitches & FortiAp's.Created an SSID in tunnel mode, and i want to mirror this traffic to a port in the FortiSwitch for sniffing.Any idea?(creating software switch does not have the choice of selecting  the SSID interface).Thanks 

I am trying to debug some ssl-vpn connection stuff.  If I run "diag debug application sslvpn -1" it generates a lot of debug lines.  Downloading the output and filtering through it to find what I need is not fun.  Is there a way to filter this by the source IP of the remote VPN client?  Or by some sort of VPN session ID?  Or something so that I can focus on troubleshooting a single user without having to wade through all the other connection data?

Does fortinet consider start providingh VPN only MSI format installers? so we can push the vpn clients thru GPO or other RMM tools? and if there is one for, if you could create one that is OFFICIAL, i would like to get hands on it. FortiClientVPNSetup  I am looking for the latest the greatest version. 

Hi FGT/EMS adminsIn FOS 7.2.10 I was able to add multi TCP Forwarding entries in my ZTNA server, while in FOS 7.4.7 I can add only one.Why this has changed? Did I miss something?

Hi There,I hope it is possible.My company uses Office 365, therefor we use the office 365 Active directory solution.in case it is possible - I was wondering how do I integrate between my 40F, running the latest firmware with the Active directory - in order to login to the 40F.I want to use my AD user instead of local user. I prefer not to install LDAP server etc. since we don't have hardware for it.

Fortinac is configured to send firewall tags to my gate. Communication is working fine. For wired switchports in Role Based Access mode, the tags are being properly sent when the Network Access Policy is matched.  However, I can't seem to get it working for wifi. Although the correct NAC policy is hit, logical network is assigned, and VLAN is changed, I still get:Looking up LogicalNetworkConfiguration for LogicalNetwork prod-wifiUsing SSID Name:root:corp_wifi, id: 439Returning LogicalNetworkConfiguration: AccessConfiguration- Task ID:[null]- Network:[prod-wifi]- Access Value:[VLAN_230]- Access Action:[2]- Alias:[false]- Send Groups To Firewall:[false]- RadiusAttributeGroupId:[1]- Version:[9]- Tags: []- Firewall Groups: [] One thing I noticed is there really isn't a config for applying RBAC to a Wifi SSID. Could this be the issue ?
