Remote WLANs and split-tunneling subnets

Hi all,

 

I've already checked tons of manuals, forums, kbs and cookbooks, made hundreds of experiments on live hardware, but can't find the way to do very simple thing - negating defined split-tunneling subnets for remote WLANs. I mean subnets, which are defined in config wireless-controller wtp-profile / edit <profile> / conf split-tunneling-acl. It is nice feature but working opposite way it should - defined subnets are NOT routed to wireless controller.

 

In most cases, traveler with FAP expecting direct access to corp network without other external resources slowdowns, which is 100% occurs, if we route all SSID traffic to WLC. Just imagine, how slow it could be, if remote WLAN deployed in hotel in Hong Kong, but WLC is on duty at Portugal.

 

So I think it is quite normal to define just one (or few) subnets (internal corporate network) to route via WLC, and rest of traffic should go through local FAP GW. For now, to implement this, and make just one subnet (192.168.0.0/16) to be routed to WLC, I should define 15 subnets in wtp-profile, and it is almost maximum supported number (you can't define more than 16 subnets there). So it is not possible to add even one more routable subnet (lets say, 10.11.232.0/24).

 

Hope I'm missing something, that's why I decided to post it here - maybe someone already knows how to ...

 

Thanks!

From release 5.4.6 and 5.6.3, an enhancement in this area has been added.  You can set a default action to either Local or tunnel and use ACL to configure exception.

Hi crasher, 

 

For 5.6, it will be in 5.6.3 I have corrected original post.

As you've already figured through documentation you went through, FortiAP's sprit-tunnel seemed to have been designed to split local sutnet access from the rest going over the CAPWAP tunnel. I'm afraid it wouldn't work for you.

CAPWAP is not a tunnel, its just provisioning protocol, but thanks for answer.

Hi Wanglei, thank you for help, but unfortunately I don't have such command in 5.6.2, at least on fgt240d.

lldp Enable/disable LLDP.
pmk240d (fap21d-split) # set split-tunneling-acl-path

I have also 100d with same result on 5.6.2, but have no plans to downgrade to 5.4 branch. Should I additionally set something somewhere to enable this piece of magic?

 

Thanks!

Wow, thanks a lot, it is just great! Hope you release 5.6.3 soon, keeping eye on it.

 

By the way, I've created Telegram channel with automated firmware releases feed to simplify monitoring on fresh ftnt firmwares. Initially I've done it for myself, but if anyone interested, just join https://t.me/fortifw.

 

Cheers.

Wanglei, hello again, I'm back. :)

Upgraded to 5.6.3 and tried to use split-tunneling-acl-path with no luck. In my case this command just do nothing. I've made different tests on 100d/240d with fap21d, but unfortunately can't get it work as expected. I've even rebooted AP after modifying wtp-profile, but it does not help (and seems not needed, because changes in profile propagated to AP immediately after clicking OK/pressing Enter after next in cli).

 

I've made very simple tests just trying to tunnel 192.168.1.0/24 and right after I add it to split-tunnel-acl, it becomes unreachable - it is normal. But no changes after setting split-tunneling-acl-path to tunnel OR local - everything works same way as before, even after reboots/reconnects. So still impossible to invert (negate) ACLs for split tunneling.

 

Maybe I missing something because there is no any docs available for this feature at this moment?

 

Thanks in advance for your kind help!

This one from another message thread you answered me

Thanks,

I think it is better to keep everything here.

 

So, I'm not sure you want complete FG config, or just wireless part? So here it is:

Tested with below config and it's working fine.

Maybe you can let me know the AP version and output of  ifconfig br0, ifconfig br.ts.0 and vcfg from FAP. You can telnet into the AP
