| Description | This article describes how to prevent FortiClient from receiving the wrong on/off fabric tag information before it auto-connects to the VPN |
| Scope | FortiClient. |
| Solution |
On Windows startup, the network is not immediately available, and the network state will likely be offline, because servers are unreachable.
FortiClient has a tag <disable_internet_check>; if it is set to 1, then it repeats connection attempts without checking the network status. If the network suddenly becomes available, then FortiClient might just connect a split second before fabric state updates to the onnet.
If <disable_internet_check> is set to 0, then FortiClient will not try repeatedly. Instead, it waits until the network becomes available, then continues the VPN connection. This usually would not cause any problem.
To modify this tag, go to EMS -> Endpoint Profiles, assign the VPN profile, XML edit the tag <disable_internet_check>, change the value from the default '1' to '0'.
