Question

Browser SSL Errors - Your connection is not private

Hi there, having an issue getting to certain websites.  Profile is very simple... lan-wan, all, all, always, nat enabled, only security profile is ssl "certificate-inspection".  No content filtering, dns, antivirus, ips etc.  Regardless of the browser, we get your connection is not private.  NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID.  Try to import the fortinet certs into the trusted root authority but error still persists.  Tried both flow and proxy based inspection.  Any thoughts?

    To fix the above error, you need to reinstall the SSL certificate. In the video, there is an SSL certificate sharing link to the year 2031. I fixed the private connection successfully

    Hi,

     

    Please confirm if you are using DPI.

    Please try to use normal cert inspection
