Configuring FortiSOAR to Use FQDN Instead of IP Address
Notes
- Ensure the FQDN is properly configured in your DNS records to resolve to the server’s IP address.
- Make sure SSL/TLS certificates for your FQDN are installed in NGINX to avoid browser security warnings.
To configure FortiSOAR to be accessible using a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) instead of an IP address, follow these steps:
Access the FortiSOAR server via SSH
- Use your preferred SSH client to connect to the FortiSOAR server.
Navigate to the NGINX configuration directory
- Go to the directory where the NGINX configuration files are located. The path is /etc/nginx.
Edit the NGINX configuration file
- Open the nginx.conf file using vi.
Modify the configuration
- Find the http {} block in the configuration file.
- Add the following block of text inside the http {} section
- server {
listen 443;
server_name 10.180.1.25; # Replace with the current IP address
return 301 http://fortisoar.com$request_uri; # Replace with your desired FQDN
} Ensure you replace:
- 10.180.1.25 with the current IP address of the FortiSOAR server.
- fortisoar.com with your FQDN.
- Refer screenshot attached for better clarity
Save the changes
- Press Esc, type :wq, and press Enter to save and exit the editor.
Restart the NGINX service
- Apply the changes by restarting the NGINX service:
- systemctl restart nginx
Test the configuration
- Open a web browser and navigate to the fortisoar server with the ip (e.g., https://10.10.10.10). Verify that the redirection is working correctly to thr FQDN.
