When using fortiClient to connect to ssl-vpn, does fortiGate's firewall policy allow ssl-vpn traffic?
1. Connect to ZERO TRUST TELEMETRY and pass the ztna authentication. forticlient obtains the ZTNA-EMS-TAG
2. Connect ssl-vpn to fortiGate,
3. The fortiGate policy is as follows: Do not check the ztna-ems-tag
config firewall policy

set name "Allow_sslvpn_users"
set uuid 7f32310a-131c-511e-283d-23f23f23fcb164
set srcintf "ssl.root"
set dstintf "port1"
set action accept
set ztna-status enable
set srcaddr "SSL_VPN"
set dstaddr "PRIVATE"
set schedule "always"
set service "ALL"
set utm-status enable
set ssl-ssh-profile "certificate-inspection"
set av-profile "default"
set ips-sensor "default"
set users "test"
next
end
Question: Will ssl-vpn traffic be allowed?
Hi @Peter3

Yes, you can use EMS ZTNA tags on VPN policies.
