Hi,

 

What exactly is the point of subscribing to Fortiguard IoT with FortiOS 6.4 as you can't apply any firewall policy based on device type (like you could on 6.0). You would get slightly more detail in FortiView but that's it. If you want anything else you need to define MAC address policy.

On 6.0.x I have policy based on device type + user group (picked from RADIUS authentication for WiFi), so can easily apply policy to iOS device on group xxx. Impossible to do the same on 6.4.
