RDP

Hi,

I am new to FortiGate firewalls and today I changed my ASA to FGT60 but after the change I can't RDP to my server nor to other Windows PC from my Mac. There are no rules for inside/internal network and everything is on the same network so it should work. I changed back to my ASA and it worked again.

 

It's a normal setup fiber -> fgt -> accesspoint and the reset of the network. Have I missed something or do I need to allow/add rules? Thanks in advanced!

Hello,

 

For connectivity related issues I would recommend to collect debug flow and traffic sniffer. Please find the details by following the link below:

Hello nabz0r,

If you are accessing your Machines from the Internet as per your setup from fiber side, you need to have a firewall policy to allow access from outside to inside. Even you can configure VIP to access your servers from outside like explained in this document.
