Hi there
I'm not able to access via DydNS I notice that the DNS is green and that the public IP address is okay.
I am connecting through DHCP and receiving a private IP address of 192.168.100.10 from the DNS WAN provider enable https .
Why am not I able to access this FW with DYdns?
One more thing: I modified the provider's DNS settings. I read somewhere that trying to modify the DNS default fortiguard firewall for Provaider caused me to lose my connection to the firewall through my private IP address.
Could someone please explain this behaviour to me?

Hello @Anatoli ,
DYNDNS service just provides fqdn to you. If you don't have access to the public IP of your firewall from outside, dyndns will not work.
If you have an ISP modem or router you need to configure NAT for your firewall management address and port. If your ISP allows that, you can access your firewall from outside. Some ISPs use cgnat, and because of that, you can't access your device from the internet. If you have a station like that you need to talk with your ISP.
Hi @ozkanaltas
The plan is to build up a VIP, which the othe company is able ccess via public IP or DNS (public IP changes are preferred). I constantly struggle to understand that solution.
I hope you can clarify this for me. Please explain.
My issue is that the WAN is configured via Dhcp, which is why I am seeing 192.168.100.10 on my wan
With the IP public that I am seeing on the dashboard information, is it possible to create a VIP in this situation? In response to your replay, I assume that it isn't because it appears that the isp doesn't have NAT redirection set to the IP 192.168.100.10.
Another way to do it is to set up the router modo bridge and setup the interface like ppoe , it is correct?
Best regards
Hi @Anatoli ,
IP information on the dashboard, FortiGate gets this information from internet services like "what is my IP". Because of that, this information is just cosmetic.
You have two options for achieving your request. The first one is, if it is possible you can configure nat on the ISP router/modem. The second one is, as you said you can configure the isp router/modem as a bridge mode.
After this configuration, you can start to use VIP on your firewall.
@ozkanaltas thanks
