Hello @ahmadking22 ,

Do you have a public domain or public IP. If you have a public IP you can configure virtual IP on Fortigate. 

I am sending an example vip configuration image. You can configure it accordingly.

After this configuration, you need to use the vip object you created within the rule.

Also, you can review this document about virtual IPs.

Hello @ahmadking22 ,

Then you can configure the external IP address as 0.0.0.0.In this way, even if the rope changes, there will be no problem.

ok but after that how can i access

I think Fortigate's DDNS service is used in your environment. FortiGate automatically updates the IP address of the fqdn address you use for ddns during ip changes, so you can use the fqdn address you have defined in the DDNS service for external access.

If the reason you do not have a static IP address is because you are using a line such as ADSL or VDSL. For these types of lines, ISPs usually use CGNAT. For this reason, the public IP address does not reach the FortiGate's interface and you cannot access your devices from outside.

Is the IP address you see on the port to which the ISP line is connected private or public?
