forigate 81f Certificate applied but still showing Not Secure

Hello,

 

Recently got an 81f installed and I generated a Certificate and applied it to the Fortigate Administrative, users, and VPN settings, but when I connect to the Fortigate, I still get the Not Secure warning on any browser (Edge, Google, Firefox).  When I check the certificate on Chrome, it shows that it is not a valid certificate and that it was generated from Let's Encrypt and shows the generated date, and expiration date.  Any ideas on where to look for troubleshooting this issue?

 

I am running on Firmware 7.0.9 if that matters.

 

 

Thanks!

Are you using IP address or host name to connect to the FortiGate? Does that match the CN or SAN of the cert?

I am connecting to the FortiGate with the IP Address.  I just tried connecting with the FQDN and it worked...well, I feel silly.  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
