Missing Explicit Proxy Feature Option

Before opening a ticket I was hoping the fortiniet gurus could help out.  I have a 60E with a UTM license running 5.4.3.  When I went to enable explicit proxy from feature select there was no option, it's not listed in any of the options.  From the cli when I look at system settings its not listed as gui-explicit-proxy  enable or disabled.  What am I missing?  Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

    Hello bwill,

     

    On the Dashboard, is your Mode "Flow-based" or "Proxy-based". You will need to change to "Proxy-based" first before you can enable explicit proxy from the feature select. Can you give this a try?

    That did it hmtay_FTNT and my ticket with fortigate is in researching state 4 hrs later, with no answer yet .  Go figure, the solution to my problem was at the dashboard and I didnt even see it.

    Thanks!
