| Description | This article serves as a troubleshooting guideline when trying to identify issues between Fortigate and EMS. |
| Scope | These guidelines are for FortiGate ZNTA telemetry, tags, and policy enforcement. |
| Solution |
FortiClient to EMS server: - Telemetry connections and Compliance verification results EMS server to Forticlient. - Profile push, Real time monitoring and Compliance Verification results FortiClient EMS to FortiGate. - Dynamic Endpoint Groups.
FortiClient to FortiGate - Telemetry Connection.
1) Connectivity testing Between FortiGate and EMS:
#diagnose endpoint fctems test-connectivity <EMS>
- Verify FortiGate to FortiClient EMS connectivity.
# execute fctems verify <EMS>
- Verify the FortiClient EMS’s certificate:
# diagnose test application fcnacd 2
- Dump the EMS connectivity information.
diagnose endpoint fctems test-connectivity command shows that the connection between FortiGate and Forticlient EMS is successful. The execute fctems verify command shows that the server certificate is verified with FortiGate and the diagnose test application fcnacd 2 command dumps the FortiClient EMS connectivity information.
If fcnacd does not report the correct status, run real-time fcnacd debugs:
# diagnose debug app fcnacd -1 # diagnose debug enable
- Run real-time FortiClient NAC daemon debugs.
EMS communicates to FortiGate on port 8015:
# diagnose sniffer packet any 'port 8015' 4 0 l
2) Checking dynamic tagging.
EMS pushes dynamic tag profiles to FortiClient and also sends the dynamic endpoint groups to the FortiGate.
On the EMS GUI:
Go to Zero Trust Tags -> Zero Trust Tag Monitor. - This will show the Forticlient Endpoint Tag together with the client IP addresses/ - This dynamic endpoint groups should be sent to the FortiGate
On FortiGate:
# diagnose firewall dynamic list
List EMS ZTNA tags and all dynamic IP and MAC addresses.
# diagnose endpoint record list
Show the endpoint record list. Optionally, filter by the endpoint IP address.
# diagnose test application fcnacd 7 # diagnose test application fcnacd 8
Check the FortiClient NAC daemon ZTNA and route cache.
Additional fcnacd options.
# diag test application fcnacd =====================================================
Additional debug commands for SSL-VPN/ZTNA Access proxy:
# diag debug application sslvpn -1 # diag debug ena
Run real-time WAD debugs.
# diagnose wad debug enable category all # diagnose wad debug enable level verbose # diagnose debug enable
# diagnose endpoint wad-comm find-by uid <uid>
- Query endpoints by client UID.
#diagnose endpoint wad-comm find-by ip-vdom <ip> <vdom>
- Query endpoints by the client IP-VDOM pair.
- WAD deamon handles proxy. - Forticlient NAC deamon handles connectivity between Fortigate and EMS.
