Hello Everyone, I am contacting you today because I am interested in creating an IPsec tunnel between a FortiGate & FTD.In that context, the reason why is as follow : I have two FTD in AWS and in different zonesThey are natted behind a public IP address with a private address on the WAN interface.Therefore, using the "remote ID" option would useful, because, instead of using the private IP (which is different on both FTD. i would be using the same remote ID for both firewalls.That way, i don't need to bother change the private IP address on all of my 45 On-Prem offices in case the primary FTD goes down.My question is as follow, how can I use a remote ID on FortiGate using IKEv2 configuration ? (i see this option is only available in IKEv1 configuration. I thank you all for your help.

Hello Everyone,

I am contacting you today because I am interested in creating an IPsec tunnel between a FortiGate & FTD.

In that context, the reason why is as follow :

I have two FTD in AWS and in different zones
They are natted behind a public IP address with a private address on the WAN interface.
Therefore, using the "remote ID" option would useful, because, instead of using the private IP (which is different on both FTD. i would be using the same remote ID for both firewalls.
That way, i don't need to bother change the private IP address on all of my 45 On-Prem offices in case the primary FTD goes down.

My question is as follow, how can I use a remote ID on FortiGate using IKEv2 configuration ? (i see this option is only available in IKEv1 configuration.

I thank you all for your help.
