Description

This article describes the situation where the av-mem-limit feature doesn’t work properly when setting “av-failopen pass” in FortiGate v7.4.4. 

Scope

FortiGate v7.4.4

Solution
  1. At FortiGate unit, configure the av-mem-limit feature:

 

config ips global

set av-mem-limit xx

end

 

xx is an integer value from <10> to <50>.

 

  1. Configure av-failopen with the pass as follows:

config system global

set av-failopen pass

end

 

  1. The av-mem-limit feature does not work with the setting 'set av-failopen pass'.

To fix:

 

  1. For a workaround with a temporary fix:

Configure av-failopen to be 'off' or 'one-shot'.

 

config system global

set av-failopen yy

end

 

yy is off or one-shot.

 

  1. For a permanent fix:

It is necessary to upgrade FortiGate firmware version to be v7.4.6, v7.6.1, or above.
