Question

Can't create VPN Policy-Based Mode in FortiOS 5.4

I have a new FG 200D with v5.4.0,build1011.

 

I need to create a Policy-Based Mode VPN to create to an old site.

 

My problem is I can't find the option in the phase 1 IPsec to specify the type of VPN although I turned od the Feature "Policy-based IPsec VPN".

 

Other problem is that if I use the "Create" button on VPN > IPsec Tunnel it always open the VPN creation wizard.

And if try to change the VPN created by the wizard I can't see any option to change the VPN mode.

 

Could you help me or give me some doc link.

 

Thanks in advance

    Thank you very much Mac!

    I have already set the Policy-base IPsec vpn feature (now it is on) but when I use the wizard to create the VPN I have no option to define the Policy Mode.

     

    Could you send me a snapshot to show me where is the option (flag or menu) to set the mode.

     

    Thank you again

    Solved:

     

    I have the VPN Policy-Based Mode option if I create the new policy and at the beginning of the wizard I choose custom.

    You have to enable "Policy Based VPN" in the "Feature Select" part of the System Configuration.
