    I don' t understand your network topology. Is it like, PC_1 -> FortiGate_1 -> server_1, on the same PC_1, PC_1 -> FortiGate_2 -> server_2 ?

    When you connect with Forticlient to a Fortigate, the policies in the FGT determine what inside resources to can access. With the single 40Client, you can access one PC up to everything. How you set up the policies in the FGT determine where you can reach. Hope that helps.

    Forticlient supports ONE current connection to a VPN server. You cannot start it twice to have 2 concurrent tunnels to 2 different servers. If you need that use a VPN router or a Fortigate.
