I have the same question as KB below

Technical Note: Policy Package gets imported incompletely into FortiManager

 

Is there any other solution in the new version?

Is it possible to make quick adjustments from FortiManager during import configuration to make it import properly?

 

Thanks.

Hi @Anthony_E 

 

I had a problem about firewall address conflicts.

 

"firewall address",FAIL,"(name=10.0.0.0/8, oid=2271, reason=interface((firewall address:10.0.0.0/8) wan1<-any) binding fail)"

 

So I used version 7.4.2, it will auto map to dynamic type address object, that
Solved my problem.

 

Thanks.

HEllo,

 

Here the answer form one of our expert:

 

"There is an interface mapping dialog where you can choose the actual mapping at the import time, this should avoid conflicts at the first place:
