WAN optimization and web caching features

WAN optimization and web caching features were removed from 60D and 90D series platforms, starting with 6.0.0, due to their limited disk size. Affected platforms are: l FGT-60D l FGT-60D-POE l FWF-60D l FWF-60D-POE l FGT-90D l FGT-90D-POE l FWF-90D l FWF-90D-POE l FGT-94D -POE

After upgrading from 5.6 patch to 6.0.0, diagnose debug config-error-log read will show command parsing errors regarding wanopt and webcache settings.

FortiGuard Security Rating Service

Not all FortiGate models support running the FortiGuard Security Rating Service as the fabric "root" device. The following FortiGate platforms can run the FortiGuard security rating service when added to an existing Fortinet security fabric managed by a supported FortiGate mode:

  • FGR-30D-A l FGR-30D l FGR-35D l FGR-60D l FGR-90D l FGT-200D l FGT-200D-POE l FGT-240D l FGT-240D-POE l FGT-280D-POE l FGT- 30D l FGT-30D-POE l FGT-30E l FGT-30E-MI l FGT-30E-MN l FGT-50E 特别提示 7

built-in certificate

FortiGate and FortiWiFi D-series and later have built-in Fortinet_Factory certificates that use 2048-bit certificates with 14 DH groups.

FortiGate and FortiWiFi-92D Hardware Limitations

FortiOS 5.4.0 reports issues with FG-92D modelsSpecial Notices > High Availability in FG-92D Interface Modepart of the release notes. These issues related to using ports 1 through 14 include:

  • PPPoE fails, HA cannot be formed. l IPv6 packets are discarded. l The FortiSwitch fails to be discovered. l Depending on the network topology, spanning tree loops may occur.

FG-92D and FWF-92D do not support STP. These issues were improved in FortiOS 5.4.1, but introduced a new command enabled by default with some side effects:

Configure the global setting hw-switch-ether-filter

Special Note

When the command is enabled:

  • Allow ARP (0x0806), IPv4 (0x0800), and VLAN (0x8100) packets. l BPDUs are discarded, so no STP loop occurs. l PPPoE packets are lost. l IPv6 packets are discarded. l The FortiSwitch device is not found. l Depending on the network topology, HA may not be formed.

When the command is disabled:

  • All packet types are allowed, but depending on the network topology, may cause an STP loop.

FG-900D and FG-1000D

CAPWAP traffic will not be offloaded if the ingress and egress traffic ports are on different NP6 chips. It will only be offloaded if both ingress and egress ports belong to the same NP6 chip.

FortiClient (Mac OS X) SSL VPN Requirements

When using SSL VPN on Mac OS X 10.8, you must enable SSLv3 in FortiOS.

FortiClient configuration file changes

With the introduction of the Fortinet Security Fabric, FortiClient configuration files will be updated on FortiGate. FortiClient profiles and FortiGate are now primarily used for endpoint compliance, while FortiClient Enterprise Management Server (EMS) is now used for FortiClient deployment and configuration.

FortiClient profiles on FortiGate are used for compliance-related FortiClient features such as antivirus, web filter, vulnerability scanning, and application firewall. you can setIrregularitiesSet asjamorwarn.

FortiClient users can change its functionality locally to meet FortiGate compliance standards. You can also configure endpoints centrally using FortiClient EMS. EMS also includes support for additional features such as VPN tunnels or other advanced options. For more information, seeFortiOS Manual - Security Profiles.

Using the dedicated management interface (mgmt1andmgmt2)

For best stability, use the management port (mgmt1andmgmt2) are used for management traffic only. Do not use the management port for general user traffic.

Upgrade to FortiOS 6.0.2

Supported upgrade paths information can be found atflying tower customer Serve & support Place.

View information about supported upgrade paths:

This warning does not apply if you are upgrading from version 5.6.2 or 5.6.3.

(Video) FortiGate 6.2.2 - Updating Firmware

Before upgrading, make sure that port 4433 is not used for management port or management movement (in config system global), or for SSL VPN (in config vpn ssl settings). If you are using port 4433, you must change the admin-port, admin-sport, or SSL VPN port to a different port number before upgrading.

The physical interface is contained in the zone

Upgrading from 5.6.3 or later removes all members of the zone if the zone contains a physical interface and at least one of the physical interface's VLAN interfaces is removed. For example:

Before upgrade:

Configure System Zone Edit "Trust"

set interface "port1" "Vlan01" "Vlan02" "Vlan03"

Next

After upgrade:

Configure System Zone Edit "Trust"

Next

Remove "port1" from the list and the upgrade will preserve the VLAN.

Conditions for deleting a member of a physical zone: l If a physical interface is associated with a VLAN (regardless of whether they are in the same zone or any zone) Conditions for deleting a member of a VLAN zone: l If the parent physical interface is also set in a zone

You can use the following options to prepare for the upgrade:

  • Use only physical interfaces without VLAN association or:
  • Creates a new VLAN in place of the current physical interface zone member and removes all physical zone members from the zone with only the associated new VLAN entry.

Fortinet Security Architecture Upgrade

FortiOS 6.0.2 greatly increases interoperability between other Fortinet products. This includes:

l FortiAnalyzer 6.0.0 l FortiClient 6.0.0 l FortiClient EMS 6.0.0 l FortiAP 5.4.4 and later l FortiSwitch 3.6.4 and later

Upgrade the firmware for each product in the correct order. This keeps the network connected without using manual steps.

Before upgrading any product, you must readFortiOS Security Architecture Upgrade Guide.

The minimum version of the TLS service changes automatically

To improve security, FortiOS 6.0.2 uses the ssl-min-proto-version option (under config system global) to control the minimum SSL protocol version used for communication between FortiGate and third-party SSL and TLS services.

When you upgrade to FortiOS 6.0.2 and later, the default ssl-min-proto-version option is TLS v1.2. The following SSL and TLS services inherit the global setting to use TLS v1.2 by default. You can override these settings.

  • email server (configure system email server) l certificates (configure vpn certificate settings) l FortiSandbox (configure system fortisandbox) l FortiGuard (configure log fortiguard settings) l FortiAnalyzer (configure log fortianalyzer settings)
  • LDAP server (configure user ldap) l POP3 server (configure user pop3)

Downgrade to previous firmware version

Downgrading to a previous firmware version will result in loss of configuration for all models. Only keep the following settings:

l Operation Mode l Interface IP/Management IP l Static Routing Table l DNS Settings l VDOM Parameters/Settings l Admin User Account l Session Assistant l System Access Profile

If you have long VDOM names, you must shorten the long VDOM names (maximum 11 characters) before downgrading:

  1. Backup your configuration.
  2. In the backup configuration, replace all long VDOM names with their corresponding short VDOM names. For example, the edit/replace with edit/
  3. Restore configuration.
  4. Perform a downgrade.

Amazon AWS enhances network compatibility issues

With this new enhancement, there are compatibility issues with older AWS VM versions. After downgrading a 6.0.2 image to an older version, network connectivity is lost. Because AWS does not provide console access, you cannot restore a downgraded image.

When downgrading from 6.0.2 to an older version, the enhanced nic driver is not allowed to run. The following AWS instances are affected:

FAQs

What is the maximum number of entries has been reached in FortiGate? ›

Maximum number of entries: 10'. This is a limit that is not present in the Max Values table, and at the moment it exists on all FortiGate platforms.

How do I read Fortinet firewall logs? ›

To view raw logs, in the log message list view toolbar, click Tools > Display Raw. To switch back to formatted log view, click Tools > Formatted Log. For more information about FortiGate raw logs, see the FortiGate Log Message Reference in the Fortinet Document Library.

What is the difference between FortiOS mature and feature? ›

A release that contains new features also brings with it a greater chance of new bugs. Therefore, these releases are less suitable for use on production systems. Mature releases, on the other hand, contain more bug fixes and rather fewer new features and are therefore also to be regarded as more stable.

How to check open ports in Fortinet? ›

Go to Policy & Objects -> Local In and there is an overview of the active listening ports.
