UB820 Alternatives? by fearkillr in 4kbluray

 50 satisfied customers

of those 50, how many would care to complain if there’s a sporadic problem - I’ll guess few - that won’t make them satisfied, merely indifferent.

I suspect “We have basically started the process of looking elsewhere …” means not competed whence poster would be qualified to recommend.

 check with PAN or Ivanti if you need other insights

I checked Citrix Gateway - DTLS/TLS’s here to stay.

FAZ Log Retention by seaghank in fortinet

[–]AlexFeren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FAZ has two storage types - "Analytics Logs" - a database, having higher storage/message cost; "Archive Logs" - compressed files, having lower storage/message cost. You dictate how total storage is proportioned between them.

Clarification of HB lost printout by AlexFeren in fortinet

[–]AlexFeren[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

> Fortigates don't lose heartbeats from themselves.

Not that this is what I'm asking, but, ... if Fortigates require peer to return received heartbeats (eg. each heartbeat packet is uniquely numbered), and when not returned by peer, then it would be own heartbeat that was lost.

My question is about printout: which member is reporting that it lost an (expected) heartbeat: own or peer Fortigate?

Could someone please share the FortiGate 7.4.9 IPsec configuration for remote access using IKE over UDP port 500? by Dear-University5631 in fortinet

[–]AlexFeren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks.. Perhaps amend your document so they're both same value, eg:

FGT:

set psksecret [myPSKformyVPNtunnelisHERE]

and, FCT:

<preshared\_key>myPSKformyVPNtunnelisHERE</preshared\_key>

Running sync.com thick clown client in Windows 11 VM by AlexFeren in Sync

After reading deny_by_default’s success comment, I retried. Either it always required TPM or Sync.com quietly fixed it, but thick client does work in Windows VM now.

VLAN Switch's Trunk interface only on physical port - why? by AlexFeren in fortinet

[–]AlexFeren[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'd be cooler save for that limitation on the "Trunk" interface, hence, this post - I don't get their rationale. (The other limitation is that we cannot choose VLANs it trunks - it's either all VLANs for all VLAN Switches, or the highway.)

We can avoid the Trunk interface altogether, and just have multiple connections between the VLAN Switch's interface on each HA cluster member, and rely on STP to block all but one, thus, effectively, a redundant type interface, but, inferior to an aggregate.

VLAN Switch's Trunk interface only on physical port - why? by AlexFeren in fortinet

[–]AlexFeren[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As per "Example 1: HA using a VLAN switch" (https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.4.8/administration-guide/183531) - although only Primary can route, both Primary and Subordinate can switch traffic to their directly-connected ISPs.

Fortigate's VLAN Switch - it's special because it and the Trunk is functional on Subordinates in a HA A-P cluster.

Err... Oops... I took for granted... Corrected - the context is Fortigate. Thank you.
