Question

TLS handshake hanging

Anything behind the firewall usually needs a refresh or two to get past the TLS handshake. Otherwise, Firefox sits there. Sometimes it goes through fine. Anything not behind the firewall doesn't have problems.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Which FortiOS version?

Any related log on the firewall?

Yes I am experiencing the exact same issues. I can't figure out what it is. Firefox but also edge just hangs on performing tls handshake often timing out. if you then just enter in the address bar the page will load. it's driving me nuts.

 

Great to learn I am not the only one. Did you find what it could be already?
