Dear Support,

Please kindly advise me here.

I have Fortigate firewall version 7.2.8 configured with FortiClient VPN to Onpremise network and all is working fine, but now I want to add a connection(IPsec tunnel) to Microsoft Azure in the Cloud, we are in the process of migrating to cloud. Is it possible to run a local connection to (Onpremise) and then another connection again into Microsoft Azure Cloud simultaneously without conflict and will that work properly?

And will I be able to connect two FortiClient VPN's one to Ompremise network and the other to Microsoft Azure Cloud network on my laptop?

I look forward to your response.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,
Abel

You don't have to disconnect to switch between networks. Just 1 network has SSLVPN and you access the 2nd network through IPSEC and SSLVPN Portal settings. (and firewall rules).

Do IP Sec from your premise network to the cloud.

SSL VPN to premise network and configure SSLVPN portal to allow SSLVPN clients to access cloud resources.

Hi @Abel,

So you want to connect to 2 IPsec VPN at the same time from FortiClient? It is not possible. You can only connect to 1 VPN at a time.

You provided an incorrect answer.

With SSLVPN portals, you can use an SSLVPN connection from a central location to access resources on the other end of as many IPSEC tunnels as you want.

Hi JGaiser,

Thank you, so is it possible that I can configure the Fortigate to Azure Cloud while my employees are using SSLVPN connected to the On-premise network without interrupting them?
