Version 5.1 by 62a39401d442e60068439d9f on 2016/09/06 06:24

 

General Info

 

  • In order for the Fortigate generated Deep Scanning certs to not generate an SSL warning you must import and Trust the REMC1 certificate authority cert. 
  • All Fortigate SSL certificates are dynamically generated from this certificate for Deep Scanning webfilter/firewall profiles 
  • To quickly deploy the certificate push it out in the Machine section of Active Directory Group Policy under the Trusted CA authorities section. 
  • Firefox needs to have the certificate individually imported for each user. Firefox is not going to be feasible for deep scanning firewalls (all of them not just Fortigate). Uninstall firefox. 
  • Chrome, IE, Safari are feasible options.
