- In this example, the IKE SAML port is 10443.
config system global set auth-ike-saml-port 10443 end
- Upgrading the FortiGate to firmware versions 7.6.3 or 7.4.8, or rebooting on that firmware, will result in the reset of the custom port 10443 to the default port.
FortiGate-71F # config system global FortiGate-71F (global) # show config system global set alias "FortiGate-71F" set gui-auto-upgrade-setup-warning disable set hostname "FortiGate-71F" set switch-controller enable set timezone "US/Pacific" set virtual-switch-vlan enable end
FortiGate-SecuorCHIC-71F # config system global FortiGate-SecuorCHIC-71F (global) # show | grep ike FortiGate-SecuorCHIC-71F (global) # FortiGate-SecuorCHIC-71F (global) # show full | grep ike set auth-ike-saml-port 1001
- Console cable connection will also show the error or warning after reboot of the firewall on v7.6.3 and v7.4.8 as well.

Welcome!
WARNING: File System Check Recommended! An unsafe reboot may have caused an inconsistency in the disk drive. It is strongly recommended that you check the file system consistency before proceeding. Please run 'execute disk scan 259' Note: The device will reboot and scan the disk during startup. This may take up to an hour.

- This issue is reported only when 'auth-ike-saml-port' is set to 10443.
- As a workaround, use any random port instead of 10443. As shown in the test below, there is no error or warning if a different custom port is used.
