| Description | This article describes how to solve the issue where users cannot authenticate on an SSID using WPA3 for FortiAP-423E after upgrading FortiGate to version 7. x.x. |
| Scope |
FP423E-v6.4-build0481. FortiGate-80E v7.2.4,build1396,230131 (GA.F). |
| Solution |
After the customer replaced the FortiGate-100D with a new FortiGate-60F and imported all configurations from FortiGate-100D, many clients (almost 100% Android) stopped authenticating on a SSID using WPA3 as authentication method. This devices can authenticate only on an SSID with WPA2 authentication.
There is a known issue. Open a new ticket on FortiCare to get the interim firmware that fixes this issue. Final GA version is to be released soon.
The workaround for this is to use WPA2 instead. |
