Question

Forticlient update on-fabric only

Is there a way to ensure that Forticlient update is only deployed when a device is registered as on-fabric? 

 

Currently whenever a new software updates is available the forticlient will start the update.
When they're connected to the SSL VPN, which correctly registers as off-fabric, the update will drop the connection, which is annoying. 

I need these updates to only happend when on-fabric, or if possible an option to start the install manually through the client. 

All my Forticlients are connected to onPrem FortiClient EMS service.

Hello @MoccaMaster ,

 

Frankly, there is no option for that. But you can configure reboot options on deployment profiles. Users can reboot the machine at their available time.

Hi @ozkanaltas ,

 

Thanks for your reply. 

I have the reboot options set, but was after a solution to avoid updates when off-fabric, as this is a general request from my users as it is interrupting their work when they work from customer sites, home or other external places.
