hi,

make sure you have enabled 'Ping' capability in the interface setup:

Network>Interfaces>WAN, Access, tick 'ping'.

If that is already the case:

check on the same page that you have not specified 'Trusted Hosts'. This will limit access not only for login but ping as well.

The problem has nothing todo witth fortigate allowaccess

 

Have you ran  cli-dm diag debug flow?  Have you  tried a icmp-traceroute ( most likely the default for the router is a UDP port based traceroute  )

Do your adminstrators have trusted hosts configured?

 

If you run the following command from the Fortigate and then ping from the router, can you see the pings hitting the FortiGate and leaving it?

 

diag sniffer packet any 'icmp and host FORTIGATEIPADDRESS' 4
