Description

This article describes how Interface Pair View Mode works in FortiManager.

Scope FortiManager
Solution
  1. By default, there are two View Modes (Sequence and  Interface Pair View) when viewing the firewall policy under the Policy & Objects page in FortiManager.

  1.  However, in some instances, the View Mode option is missing or does not appear. This is because when there is more than one interface in either the Source or Destination for the firewall policy, the option to view the firewall policy using the Interface Pair View is not available. As such, it will default to the By Sequence view mode.

 

As per the below screenshot, the firewall policy 'test_policy' has two interfaces in the To/Destination column (internal2 and internal3) and the View Mode option will not appear.

  1. As a change by deleting one of the interfaces (internal2) and refreshing the page has been processed, the View Mode option will then re-appear.
