it's just a recommendation that on interfaces with WAN role (i think) you shouldn't have SSH/HTTP/HTTPS enabled.

you can either ignore it or you can disable them on that WAN interface.

Opening administrative access on WAN ports is asking for attacks. You never EVER do that! If you need to access the FGT remotely, build a dial-in IPsec VPN.

This is soo basic.
