DMVPN: Fortigate as HUB and Cisco Routers as Scope

Hi,

 

One of my customers want to replace his Cisco Router, configured as DMVPN Hub, with a fortigate 1000D firewall.

The cisco Router is used to create VPNs with other cisco router, in the spoc sites.

 

Do Fortigate support DMVPN and is there a way to make this configuration running without replacing the cisco routers on the spoc sites.

 

Best regards

DMVPN is Cisco proprietary and is not supported in FortiOS.

As far as I understand the (Wikipedia article about) DMVPN it is hub-and-spoke, but at the same time fully meshed, using dynamic routing and a lot of other stuff. I'd think you could build that with Fortigates but with conventional means only, meaning, a lot of effort.

Auto Discovery VPN (ADVPN) is a Fortinet proprietary protocol. This is pretty much the same concept as DMVPN but available only on FortiGates:
