Fortigate-VM64 - No WUI access after installation on ESXi

[4kusnik]

Hi guys, 

I've deployed Fortigate-VM64 (ESXi version) in trial mode. 

I've configured local port2 with set allowaccess http https ping fgfm.

It is replying for ping requests, however, I'm unable to access Foritgate-VM64 via web browser. 

In Google Chrome I get: 

"This site can’t provide a secure connection 192.168.100.254 uses an unsupported protocol. ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH Unsupported protocol The client and server don't support a common SSL protocol version or cipher suite."

In Mozilla Firefox I get:

"Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to 192.168.100.254. Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s). Error code: SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP     The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.     Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem."   Please advise if there is something that is missing in initial configuration for web access.   Regards

Guys,

Any thoughts? 

I don't believe I'm the only one who have came across this issue.

I also encountered the same problem using the trial 2 week license in EVE-NG. I went over my head to try to fix this, by changing configuration parameters on the Fortigate and trying the same in different browsers. In the end, I wound up connecting via HTTP to the GUI. If what rdumitrescu is saying is correct, I am just frustrated that I've wasted so much time on this, but relieved that I finally have confirmation that it doesn't work.
