I can't load some websites via fortigate

I have a Fortigate 200F and I can't load some websites. These are specific web pages and the number keeps increasing as I find new web pages.
I have turned everything off and I still cannot load these web pages.
Can you help me with this?

I've tried changing the MTU and other things and it still doesn't work. For example, fortinet.com doesn't work for me either. It's both interesting and strange

Hello @idepato ,

 

I faced a similar issue before. When I changed the mss value on the rule, the problem was solved. Can you try to change the mss value to 1350 or lower?

 

If it does not work for you, you can try to change the MTU value of the wan interface.

Thank you, but It's still not working. It's very interesting and I don't know what to do with it. I've tried everything possible, but the site still doesn't work. It used to work for me, but one day it just stopped working. I've also tried calling the provider in question who owns the site in question, because it's the government and they won't block me. From them, the packets get to us, but it doesn't get to them. Also the fortinet.com site is not working and neither is the forigate documentation.

@idepato , can you please provide the below debug & sniffer output, taking one problematic destination?

 

diag debug reset
diag debug flow show console enable
diag debug flow show function-name enable
diag debug flow show iprope enable
diag debug flow filter addr x.x.x.x <<< replace x.x.x.x with destination ip of the communication.
diag debug flow trace start 10000
diag debug enable

 

Putty2 :

diag sniffer packet any “host x.x.x.x” 6 0 l <<<<< replace x.x.x.x with destination ip of the communication.


After running the commands please initiate the traffic to website and once the access is blocked /disconnected.
Please stop the debug using the below command

Hi @idepato ,

Can you PING the sites?

Can you traceroute the sites?

Check reachability from your Fortigate and client machines first. If they are reachable, run the command shared by pkumari.
