Question

Automate copying certificates from Ubuntu server and installing them in my Fortinet 61F

I switched to Let's Encrypt on my Ubuntu 24.04.2 web server for multiple web sites.   It is a pain to move the certificates from this server to my Fortinet 61F ever 60 days

1.) install the certificates on the 61F
2.) Create a deep SSL/SSH inspection certificate for policies
3.) Add them to multiple policies

I want to run this every night.

 

Fortinet worked on getting Let's Encrypt working on the 61F.   They never got it working to create a certificate with all the names. I could do wildcard for the two domains.  This would be easier to copy it from the 61F to the directory on the web server.
