Hi,

I have Fortigate 6.4.8 3800D (on-prem), I configured external connectors to my on-prem AD the purpose is to create policy based user identity, the connector can see AD events and do the connection user name_ip address, it works fine

 

The problem is that we also have AD connect to azure active directory,

can i configure external connector from on-prem fortigate to azure AD ?

 

Regards

Hi,

Thanks for your replay,

The third link is relevant but he only mention VM Fortigate on cloud,

Is it possible to work with on-prem Fortigate ?
