Description

This article describes a fix for FortiGate behavior where the Security Rating shows as 'failed' for interface classification, thus causing it to fail Unsecure Protocol Telnet and HTTP.

Scope

FortiGate.

Solution

To resolve this issue, make sure that all interfaces that are configured are assigned a role such LAN, WAN, or DMZ.

Note: This will also count the SSL-VPN interface on the FortiGate as well, as the SSL-VPN interface will not be visible on the GUI. This can be done through the CLI:

config system interface

edit ssl.root

set role LAN

end

Run the report again for a security rating check.
