Question

FortiClient - Unable to connect to VPN

  • October 21, 2024

We have a number of MacOS clients using the latest FortiClient version (7.2.4.0850)

When a user attempts to connect to the configured VPN, we see the SAML popup in the browser and the client tries to connect, connects and seemingly hangs up immediately.

 

If I look at the web UI admin interface, I can see the incoming connection

* action: tunnel-up, reason: login successfully

* action: ssl-alert, reason: warning                  <---- (usually, I get several of these)
* action: tunnel-down, reason: User requested termination of service

 

This generally takes 3-4 seconds to complete

Can anyone guide me in debugging this further?

 

Thanks in advance

Hello @PlatformTeam ,

 

Is it a full tunnel or split tunnel?
Do you see any users with Windows PC having similar issue?

Hi Umer

It is a split-tunnel and we dont have any Windows users.

The Mac is running Sequoia 15.0.1 if that helps

 

Thank you
