Forticlient - SAML - 2FA

[Janfi]

Hello,

I’d like to seek some advice. I currently have a functioning VPN with 2FA through the Azure app. The VPN operates normally, and authorization goes through without issues. However, I’m facing a problem when the Microsoft window “Remember this sign-in” appears after logging in. If we select YES, the VPN closes and displays “inactive VPN.” When we log in again and choose NO, the VPN connects successfully. Sometimes it happens the other way around: when we click YES to remember the sign-in, the VPN becomes inactive, and we have to select NO. It seems like a cookie issue because when I clear the cookies from the browser history, the login works perfectly right away. Has anyone else encountered this issue? It seems like it would be helpful to bypass the browser's use of cookies altogether. Theoretically, that could work, but I’m not sure how to achieve that. I’d also like to clarify that I’m using FortiClient version 7.4.0.1658 and have Microsoft Edge set as my default browser. Also we don't have EMS.

Best regards,

Jan
