Description | This article describes how to fix the issue when the FortiGate GUI is not loading after the upgrade to v7.2.5. |
Scope | FortiGate v7.2.5 and onwards. |
Solution |
For example, the settings shown below use port 8443.
config system global set admin-sport 8443 end
https://example.fortiddns.com:8443 or https://<Ipaddress>:8443 should be used.
Starting in FortiOS v7.2.5, users should use the built-in Fortinet_Factory certificate, or SHA-256 and higher certificates for the web management interface.
For example:
config system global set admin-server-cert Fortinet_Factory end
SHA1 would not be supported anymore from v7.2.5 onwards. Related document: |
