It goes on a loop like that, anybody had this problem?

Hi @NPN,

 

FortiClient logs will be useful. Please refer to this article: https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiClient/Technical-Tip-How-to-enable-debug-log-in-FortiClient/t...

@NPN Is there any additional debugging info before or after this for additional context?

Grasping, but maybe a protocol mismatch between server and client that won't allow them to progress in negotiations?

 

I've had something similar appear in logs, but this has not been a show stopper:
