Fortiportal Secondary IP address not responding

In continuation with my last posts,
I have configured the second ip address on port2 of the Fortiportal and Port2 has been enabled.
I have also configured another static route to the gateway of the VLAN of the IP address being assigned to port2.
The Fortiportal has two static routes now one for port1 device and second for port2 device. 
I can ping the gateway for the VLAN ip address on port2 from the fortiportal.
For some reason, I cannot ping the fortportal secondary ip from my pc or another network device and hence not the GUI as well on the secondary ip.
Is there a service that I have to enable for the port2 ip address so that I can access the GUI through the secondary IP as well?
I am trying to have two IP address on two VLANs so that it can be accessed by two teams

On the port2 interface you need to allow https access. It does not appear to be there  by default.

 

I had version 7.0.4 and upgraded to 7.2.3 (using the proper upgrade path) and at one of the steps I had the same issue. It just stopped working. 

 

You will need to do something like

config system interface

edit port2

set allowaccess https

next

end

 

You can also add icmp and ssh

set allowaccess https,icmp

 

Hope this helps.
