Hello guys, I was trying secure a guest wifi from illegal torrent streaming. i set up  web filters , application control and all work fine. But we found a <<hole>> lets say. A user used hotspot from his phone and connected to a streaming site (from the ones we have blocked) . The problem is that when he connected to our wifi the movie continued to play .  Is there a way to stop that session with the site automatically?I was thinking something like a reoccuring Session killer to particular sites. is it possible? FortiGate 

I need to upgrade a group of not licenced fortigates, I tried to run a script that execute a restore image tftp but after downloading and validate the image from the tftp server the script stops with errors and doesnt do anything. I would like to know if this upgrade process is posible and if there are alternatives to do this upgrade on not licenced fortigates. Maybe a script on an external server that execute a ssh on every fortigate. Thanks!

hi,i'm migrating a cisco asa ACL to a FGT.just to confirm, i'll always need to create 2x FW policy: inbound and outbound rule for each single ACL?an example would be below: !!

I am trying to reboot a downstream device in the fabric, but the automation stitch is not triggering. The trigger is a weekly schedule at hour 3 (3am - see image below). For action, I've tried using the system action (included with v7.2 onward) as well as a CLI Script for the reboot. Interesting points to note:  If I use the system action and click on the Test Automation Stitch, it reboots the downstream device.If I use the CLI Script and click on the Test Automation Stitch, it reboots the root and downstream device.Waiting for the trigger to reboot in either instance never occurs. Any help is appreciated. All devices are running 7.6.3Root device is a 600EDownstream device is a 40F I have followed the below, but this does not mention if it can be used for a downstream device in a fabric. https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Using-Automation-Stitch-to-schedule-restart-reboot/ta-p/19185 

Hey all Trying to automate a few things so I made a script that makes a script that makes the many objects I need to create on a regular basis. The problem is that whatever I do, I can't get the "Upload bulk CLI file" to take my CLI script, all I get is "configuration file error". Pasting the whole script on the CLI works fine and behaves exactly as expected, so I have no idea what the GUI upload function is going on about. Here's a super simple CLI script I made for testing: config firewall addressedit "Blocked-IP-22.222.22.222"set subnet 22.222.22.222 255.255.255.255nextedit "Blocked-IP-222.22.222.22"set subnet 222.22.222.22 255.255.255.255nextedit "Blocked-IP-11.111.11.111"set subnet 11.111.11.111 255.255.255.255nextedit "Blocked-IP-111.11.111.11"set subnet 111.11.111.11 255.255.255.255next end 4 simple address objects to create. Even if they exist, this doesn't produce any error on CLI since it's just editing existing objects anyway. GUI though, "configuration file e

Hi everyone,I'm currently configuring SD-WAN on a FortiGate device, and I’ve noticed that the default routes (0.0.0.0/0) are not being generated automatically for all WAN interfaces as expected.I have four WAN links added as SD-WAN members, and SD-WAN is enabled. However, when I check the routing table, I only see two default routes. I was expecting FortiGate to automatically generate a default route per interface when SD-WAN is active.Here’s what I’ve done so far:Added all interfaces to the SD-WAN zoneAssigned gateways for each member (both working members are configured via DHCP)Checked SD-WAN rules and performance SLA (removed them just for debugging)Verified that all interfaces are up and reachable (adding a static route for my source IP, just to check ping over internet)Still, the routing table doesn’t reflect all default gateways. I suspect I might be missing a step or perhaps some specific configuration is required to force the routes.Has anyone faced this issue before? Should I

Hello everyone,There is some study material on the training institute portal or here on the Fortinet support page regarding the configuration and functionality of a Fortigate used as an IDS/IPS probe.I would like to learn more about this and the admin guides just tell you step by step how to enable or configure a certain function.Thanks to all

I have cause to pull some information from a device connected to one of our switches (FortiSwitch 124F-FPOE), which are connected to / managed by our ForiGate's. Commands such as diagnose lldprx neighbor summary work fine in the CLI of the FortiGate, however it then only see's the devices connected directly to it. If I open the CLI on the switch and run the same command I get. command parse error before 'lldprx'Command fail. Return code -61 I then tried to enable LLDP in case it was off and that was causing the first error, however I have tried going to both config system global and config system settings and running set lldp-reception enable but I just get a similar error. command parse error before 'lldp-reception'Command fail. Return code -61 Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

We are planning a FortiSIEM ClickHouse deployment with an expected EPS of 15,000, using the following architecture: 1 Supervisor Node (without a dedicated data disk — i.e., no Disk 5)1 Worker Node (with a data disk, intended to store all event data) We have a few queries regarding this setup:Is it possible to install the Supervisor without a data disk, considering that all data will reside on the Worker and the Supervisor will function solely as a Keeper node? Can we configure the Worker with both “Data” and “Query” roles enabled, and create a ClickHouse cluster with a single shard and one replica without supervisor ? Could you please recommend the most suitable and supported architecture for this 1 Supervisor + 1 Worker node setup? @Secusaurus @Anthony_E could you please help here

Hello, everyone. I've recently installed FortiClient VPN only v7.2.4 in MacOS Sonoma 14 and tried to restore a configuration file extracted from a Windows device generated on a previous version (v7.2.3) but ran into the "Error importing configuration file" message box. I've noticed some of the xml lines are different from the Windows and MacOS version so I had modified them but as it turns out neither a newly generated backup file from the MacOS installed client seems to be working by restoring it right after being generated. Has anyone of you been in this situation? I've thought about manually creating each VPN but I'm missing most of the PSKs of the IPsec tunnels.  Is there any known workaround or method to restore configurations?  Thanks!

 I do not care what format, it just needs to be better than the "full configuration" human-readable format. on a Juniper SRX , you can typeshow config | display XML job doneI need to get my hands on the Fortigate config in a similar format. I've googled it, and the GUI I'm looking at it  does not seem to have the "export as YAML option. Is there a way to view the configuration in the CLI as XML or anything else?RegardsSimon PS also tried to post in this forum and failed.

I am migrating from a FortiGate 200F to another FortiGate 200F.I did the initial Logging and then created an admin password.then i used the restore function to restore the previous config to the new one.the issues now are that, I am not able to log in using the admin Login i created or any of the login credentials from the restored.Is there something else i should have done ?

Hello.  We have an Active/passive cluster setup with 200F devices that interface with a redundant LAN network. During the setup there were issues with loops occurring that were blocked by STP in the LAN network. The cluster LAN interfaces on the firewalls function as a transit LAN with VLAN sub-interfaces below it for our network hosts.The network loops were mitigated by removing redundant links into the firewalls and the LAN network settings on the Ubiquiti switching equipment. We are not currently experiencing loop issues. But we are now trying to figure out how to fix the problematic setup to remove the STP loops and allow a redundant network.The root cause of the loops looks like software switches on the FortiGate LAN interfaces. Per this link (https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Building-redundant-paths-to-switch-network-from/ta-p/279038), they are identified as not participating in STP. And the software switches are also not monitored if a LAN inte

Hello team, I have seen this before, but did not care, however now I need to solve this.Yesterday I have tried to upgrade 2 Fortigates 60F, from 7.4.5, to 7.6.3The recommended path is 7.4.5 -> 7.6.1 -> 7.6.3I could reach 7.6.1, by uploading manually the file, but when I tried to upgrade from 7.6.1 to 7.6.3, this option was not possible in 7.6.1.  I dont have any option to upgrade from file now.I tried to upgrade, following the upgrade wizard, but both Fortigates remained in "Downloading" for about 15 minutes, until appered as "Failed", no more information.I have tried this 3 times in each Fortigate, with the same issue.Both Fortigates 60F are in Argentina.Is this possible to upgrade from 7.6.1 from a file?Is there a way to avoid the Fortiguard/Fortinet servers limitations during the maintenance window? Thanks in advance.Regards,Damián
