Hi Guys,

 

Users on my LAN are able to get internet, however user on another branch are not able to get internet but are able to access the servers on my LAN.

 

One firewall interface is connected to the branch router which itself is on an eigrp network with other branch routers.

We had a McAfee firewall previously and everything was working fine, since we migrated to Fortigate, LAN user can get internet, Branch user can get access servers on LAN but can get internet.

 

Grateful if i can get some help.

    You need to describe the network setup more to let anybody understand how it's designed to work. How remote office is connected to your site? IPSec VPN from a FW into your FGT? Is it split-tunnel or remote's internet access comes over the VPN?

    Welcome to the forums. A few things need to be in place for that scenario. Assuming nothing changed in the branch end:

     

    Static route on the home office FGT back to the branch office with a lower distance than the default

    A properly configured VPN tunnel with the appropriate subnets defined that can traverse the link

    Policy(s) on the home office FGT to pass branch office traffic out the default gateway

    Appropriate web filtering if you are doing that (not required for Internet access)
