FortiClient / ZTNA Destination ports

If my proxy gateway is listening on port 9443 and the destination host is listening on 443, do I need to point my browser at https://example.com:9443 ? When I simply do https://example.com it doesn't work - I need to add 9443. I thought that FCT would append the 9443 to make it easier for the user... Thoughts ?

In ZTNA you enter in your browser the address and port of the target server, in your case you use https://server:443, and the proxy does the job by proxying the traffic to FGT-Pub-IP:9443.

Good morning, thanks for helping me out.

 

Let me clarify:

ZTNA Proxy Gateway

www.mypublicsite.com:9443

 

Destination Host

10.99.99.7:443

 

What needs to go in the browser ?

 

What entry should go into public DNS ?

In your browser you enter https://10.99.99.7:443

In public DNS you need to define www.mypublicsite.com with its public IP.
