FortiClient Default Profile usage

Hi

Short question about the behavior from FortiClients and there profiles.

What profile does FortiClient use if there ist no connection to the EMS Server? Does he use de last assigned profile or does it use the Default Profile?

Thanks.

Ok, now I understand what you want to know. If I'm not mistaken, if it loses connection to the server, Forticlient keeps its last configuration, but everything can be changed if one wants. This part of the guide might help you: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.0.7/ems-administration-guide/924998/zero-trust-tags and this one

Hi, I believe that the configuration part that interests you is this (On-/off-fabric): https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.0.7/ems-administration-guide/303940/on-fabric-detec...

Hello

I think on/off fabric is related to the current network location of your client, means inside the Corp or outside (e.g.: connecting to Corp network from home)
