Hi everyone, If I understand well, Web filter gives you more control over the things you can allow or block, in addition you don't need to use the FortiGuard DNS servers, so you don't have this limitation. Then, my question is, why do you need DNS fi...

Hi community, Can anyone help me about the procedure how to upgrade a FortiGate 60D from 5.2.3 to 6.4.8. I have taken a look at the Upgrade Path Tool, but it doesn't show either 5.2.3 nor 6.4.8. Any ideas? Regards,Julián

Hi Akshay, Last question. Now I have some security profiles which are flow-based and others that are proxy-based. When I upgrade from 5.2.13 to 5.4.10 (according to the upgrade path tool), how will the system inspection mode be? Because in version 5....
