Hi @Ling1234 ,

 

I understand that you are attempting to connect to the FortiClient SSLVPN from Singapore, with the FortiGate SSLVPN server located in China. If my interpretation is incorrect, please feel free to clarify.


To establish a successful connection, it is essential to ensure reachability from the client to the SSLVPN server. This involves verifying that the specific port number configured in the SSLVPN settings is accessible. If the port is open and properly configured, the VPN connection should function as intended.

For further information regarding RDP over SSLVPN, please refer to the article linked below.
