A browser-based Agentless VPN user can unable to connect to VPN Gateway while using PQC then following step can be followed.
Step 1: Check whether any legacy keys, such as SHA-1 or SHA-256, are still configured. If they are, they should be deprecated or removed. Next, select and enable a supported Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithm to ensure compatibility with quantum-resistant encryption standards.

Step 2: The supported cipher groups depend on the browser settings. Chrome supports the following groups, which can be verified through the browser’s developer tools. If the browser is using a different key group, update the configuration on the FortiGate accordingly. This can also be validated by analyzing a packet capture in Wireshark.
