Opposite. If you enabled it, it wouldn't be "anti-spoofing" and most of (stateful) FW features wouldn't work.

It's generally considered "anti-spoofing = block asymmetric routing". And statefull is any firewall that inspects the state of connections between a particular set of source and desition, i.e. session in FortiGate case. Layer3 is always state-less.  So unless you disabled this base feature of FortiGate under global config (enabled asymmetric routing), you can check it off from the audit list.

meaning if "set asymroute enable" then statefull and anti spoofing are active?
