Hi,

If I edit a EMS remote acces profile will clients using this profile recive the updated change? For example if I edit the VPN Tunnel 'On Connect' XML script to add a new drive mapping I would want clients using this profile to detect this. I want to avoid uninstalling the client and re-installing.

Hi, the update is automatic and the refresh is set in the server options.

HI @FortiMax_it  thanks for this. Is this the same for any remote access profile change. Say if I set the auto connect to disbaled?

I'm sorry but I don't understand what your goal is :D With telemetry, even if you are not connected in VPN, you receive the configurations. In the EMS forticlient you can temporarily exclude the PCs not to take the configurations. The "autoconnect" only serves to automatically connect the VPN.

@FortiMax_it I

was just confirming that any profile changes are communicated down to the client via the EMS telemetry and didn’t require any clint re-installs. You've confirmed this which is great - thanks.
