hi Community,

 

We have a website that goes through our fortiweb with HTTP authentication with AD enable. Is there a possibilities to exclude this authentication rule based on IP Address?

 

thanks

Hi Firdaus

One possible solution is to create 2 VS.

  • The first VS is accessed by the first IP group and it uses a protection profile with HTTP authentication
  • The second VS accessed by the second group and it uses a protection profile without HTTP authentication policy

I personally don't know another way to achieve it.

Hope it helps.
