Hi.

 

Is it possible to display on GUI Wan & Opt menu?

 

Thanks.

    I put in a ticket about this as we use wanopt on our 60D and 111Cs. According to tac, you can no longer configure wanopt through the gui and it cannot be enabled. All config and diagnostics must be done through the CLI now. Really frustrating as there is no mention about it in the release notes for 5.2.4 and the feature matrix shows wanopt is available on those devices. This change really makes wanopt undesirable for us as it is much harder to troubleshoot wanopt issues in the cli vs gui.

    Hi,

     

    This is what I've done prior to 5.2.4

     

    config system global

    set gui-wanopt-cache enable

    end

    GINETA # config system global

    GINETA (global) # set gui-wanopt-cache enable

    command parse error before 'gui-wanopt-cache' Command fail. Return code -61

    GINETA (global) #

    Hello,

    Earlier you could select it for most (all?) models via the feature menu, but it might be that it is not available for models that do not have the requirements:

     

    FortiGate models that support WAN optimization

    WAN optimization is available on FortiGate models with internal storage that also support SSL acceleration. Internal storage includes high-capacity internal hard disks, AMC hard disk modules, FortiGate Storage Modules (FSMs) or over 4 Gbytes of internal flash storage. All of these storage locations can provide similar web caching and byte caching performance. If you add more than one storage location (for example, by creating multiple partitions on a storage device, by using more than one FSM, or by using an FSM and AMC hard disk in the same FortiGate unit) you can configure different storage locations for web caching and byte caching.
