Question

Cannot connect to FTPS server outside

Hello.

 

I've got a small issue, I cannot connect to an external FTPS server which use 21 port for PASV and dynamic from 50000 to 55000. I've tried to use session-helper, and also this workaround with inverted directions: http://kb.fortinet.com/kb/documentLink.do?externalID=FD32835

but it always timeouts. Is there any feature for this or procedure how to pass this traffic? On the firewall policies for this testing I allow all traffic (ANY services) on both directions.

 

Thanks in advance.

Create a new policy to the FTPS server without SSL Inspection and move it above the existing policy.

Does the issue disappear with that?

I can see that the policy LAN->ISP is generating packets, but ISP->LAN doesn't. So it is the case of session-helper?
