When I asked my Fortinet engineer about that specific thing several releases ago I was told it did not apply to forticlient and only applied to a ssl-vpn only software that has been long depracated.

Upgrade path doesn't seem to be updated yet at the support site to include this version.

And this problem is not fixed yet. It's now in the known issue list:

435388 After VLAN interfaces are added under physical interface, the parent interface cannot be added into a zone.

We'll have skip this version again.

Hi Toshi.  Just curious about your use of a zone with the parent physical interface and child vlan interfaces.  You mentioned you were using it for tagged and untagged traffic?  I wondered if you had the child vlans in a different zone than the zone the parent physical interface was in?  I ask because I had considered something similar a while back to deal with untagged traffic but found a different solution (switch based).

 

No worries if you don't feel like posting about it!  Cheers.

Well, this is interesting:

"SSL VPN standalone client no longer supports the following operating systems: Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit & 64-bit) Microsoft Windows 8/8.1 (32-bit & 64-bit) Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit) Virtual Desktop for Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit)"

Does this refer to the FortiClient, and if so, does  anyone have any idea why is Fortinet dropping the support for it?

It's been on the release notes for some time by now. My assumption was they were moving toward Win App like the current Win App for Win10.

I just got an update from TAC saying the zone problem with the parent and vlan sub-interfaces will be fixed with 5.6.6 and 6.0.2 (6.0.x also have this problem). 6.0.2 release target date is between 7/23 and 7/26. But no ETA for 5.6.6 since 5.6.5 was just released last week.
