Forticlient VPN ARM processer

[aspnovac]

Hi,
We bought an Microsoft Surface Pro 9 which has an ARM processer.
The point of buying this was to hook it up with the Fortinet VPN, so we could go anywhere and still be connected.
Problem is i can't install it on the Surface Pro 9, due to having an ARM processer.
I was wondering if there was any early access or beta for Forticlient VPN for ARM processers that we could try?

Or is there any other solution?

I tried the Microsoft store app, but that doesn't seem to work with SAML.
The VPN connection is SAML with Azure.

We need the arm client as well. Cisco, Palo Alto, Checkpoint etc.... have it already. Maybe it was the wrong decision to go with Fortinet

can someone from fortinet please say when an ARM version will be available. Next week? next month? Next year?

[peterzosiak]

Yeah, some official roadmap would be very useful because currently it is big blocker, literally showstopper for using FortiNet VPN at all.

The Store App is useless because there is no way to suppress IPv6 DNS usage for the vpn connection like you can in the Forti client.

Any update on this?  I have a few users requesting the latest Surface Pro.  This is kind of sad that we don't already have this.  It makes it look bad on me that I suggested to the client to get a Fortinet Firewall.

Fortigate support said to me - ARM support will release with 7.4.1. @29. October! This version released 5 days later & suprise - only for x64! Next answer from support - it will be supportet @7.4.2 -  expected first quarter of 2025! Thats not OK for me

Hello everyone,

I successfully installed the open-source client OpenConnect on Windows ARM64 and established a stable connection to FortiClient SSL VPN without any interruptions. You can download the client here:

Thanx you !!!
Easier and works better than the Forti client. :)

can this be configured for SSO?

Yes, it works with accounts located in an AD.
