when ever i create new address object using FQDN as address type, there is always an exclamation makr ! on the object ?

am i doing something wrong?

 

the exclamation mark on the left says "it is using unresolved FQDN"

    Can you ping the FDQN from the command line of the FortiGate?

     

    #exec ping FDQN

     

    Maybe check the FGT DNS server configuration?

    it works after i add external DNS servers eg. google dns servers.

    previously i have 2 internal DNS servers on the setting

    Then your internal DNS servers do not forward requests correctly. Do they point back to the FGT?
