Can't login from remote computer after firmware upgrade

I upgraded mu Fortigate 100D firmware from v 5.4.10 to 5.6.7 and now I can't login with my home computer. I get a permission denied.

 

If I set up a VPN to my corporate network and login with a local network computer, then it works.

 

Can I change this, of is this normal for safety issues? Can I add my home IP so that I can directly login to the firewall?

 

Thanks.

Can you share the solution for potential readers with similar problem? It looks like missing 'trusted source' entry but who knows
