With my requirements for any networking layer 3 device I collected the basic commands that we have to know or you will not be able to manage your fortigate. Okay, okay this is a bullshit, I just update this page since it is the number one post on my site.. 🙂
1.0 Check the basic settings and firewall states
Check the system status
Check the hardware performance
Check the High Availability state
Check the session table of the firewall
2.0 Check the interface settings
Check the state, speed and duplexity an IP of the interfaces
Check the ARP Table
Change the tunnel state
Check the tunnel state
Check packet counters for the tunnel
Configure logging
Viewing the logs
8.0 Other troubleshooting commands (advices from the visitors)
1.0 Check the basic settings and firewall states
Check the system status
to see the actual software version, operational mode, HA, etc and the system time:
myfirewall1 # get sys status Version: Fortigate-50B v4.0,build0535,120511 (MR3 Patch 7) Virus-DB: 14.00000(2011-08-24 17:17) Extended DB: 14.00000(2011-08-24 17:09) IPS-DB: 3.00150(2012-02-15 23:15) FortiClient application signature package: 1.529(2012-10-09 10:00) Serial-Number: FGT50B1234567890 BIOS version: 04000010 Log hard disk: Not available Hostname: myfirewall1 Operation Mode: NAT Current virtual domain: root Max number of virtual domains: 10 Virtual domains status: 1 in NAT mode, 0 in TP mode Virtual domain configuration: disable FIPS-CC mode: disable Current HA mode: standalone Distribution: International Branch point: 234 Release Version Information: MR3 Patch 7 System time: Thu Nov 15 13:12:30 2012 |
to see what the firewall has seen so far, the traffic mix:
myfirewall1 # get system performance firewall statistics getting traffic statistics... Browsing: 544083 packets, 80679942 bytes DNS: 19333 packets, 2400831 bytes E-Mail: 52 packets, 3132 bytes FTP: 0 packets, 0 bytes Gaming: 0 packets, 0 bytes IM: 0 packets, 0 bytes Newsgroups: 0 packets, 0 bytes P2P: 0 packets, 0 bytes Streaming: 0 packets, 0 bytes TFTP: 0 packets, 0 bytes VoIP: 0 packets, 0 bytes Generic TCP: 13460 packets, 1301879 bytes Generic UDP: 7056 packets, 647156 bytes Generic ICMP: 172 packets, 11804 bytes Generic IP: 26 packets, 832 bytes |
Check the hardware performance
to see what is the state of the cpu and the uptime:
myfirewall1 # get system performance status CPU states: 0% user 0% system 0% nice 100% idle CPU0 states: 0% user 0% system 0% nice 100% idle Memory states: 48% used Average network usage: 1 kbps in 1 minute, 0 kbps in 10 minutes, 0 kbps in 30 minutes Average sessions: 0 sessions in 1 minute, 0 sessions in 10 minutes, 0 sessions in 30 minutes Average session setup rate: 0 sessions per second in last 1 minute, 0 sessions per second in last 10 minutes, 0 sessions per second in last 30 minutes Virus caught: 0 total in 1 minute IPS attacks blocked: 0 total in 1 minute Uptime: 24 days, 11 hours, 25 minutes |
to see the high cpu eaters, in case of high cpu usage:
myfirewall1 # get system performance top Run Time: 24 days, 11 hours and 26 minutes 0U, 0S, 100I; 249T, 119F, 60KF initXXXXXXXXXXX 1 S 0.0 4.5 cmdbsvr 23 S 0.0 6.8 zebos_launcher 27 S 0.0 4.7 uploadd 28 S 0.0 4.6 miglogd 29 S 0.0 5.9 miglogd 30 S 0.0 4.6 httpsd 31 S 0.0 7.0 nsm 32 S 0.0 1.1 ripd 33 S 0.0 0.9 ripngd 34 S 0.0 0.9 ospfd 35 S 0.0 0.9 proxyd 36 S 0.0 4.6 wad_diskd 37 S 0.0 4.6 scanunitd 38 S < 0.0 4.9 ospf6d 39 S 0.0 0.9 bgpd 40 S 0.0 1.0 isisd 41 S 0.0 0.9 proxyacceptor 42 S 0.0 0.7 proxyworker 43 S 0.0 1.8 getty 44 S < 0.0 4.6 |
Check the High Availability state
to get the High Availability state info with get command:
myfirewall1 # get sys ha status Model: 311 Mode: a-p Group: 0 Debug: 0 ses_pickup: enable Master:254 myfirewall1 FG311B1111111111 0 Slave :128 myfirewall2 FG311B1111111112 1 number of vcluster: 1 vcluster 1: work 10.0.0.1 Master:0 FG311B1111111111 Slave :1 FG311B1111111112 |
with show command the configuration:
(it is worth use the full-configuration to see all the default settings)
In the example I set the followings:
- the hearbeat goes on port5 and with backup on port6
- stateful failover is enabled
- the priority in Ha for this cluster unit (The fortigate has a default setting for priority, there will be only one master if you do not set it on the cluster members. This is cool.)
- and the monitored ports: port4, port6, port6
myfirewall1 # show full-configuration system ha config system ha set group-id 0 set group-name "FGT-HA" set mode a-p set password ENC set hbdev "port5" 20 "port6" 10 set route-ttl 10 set route-wait 0 set route-hold 10 set sync-config enable set encryption disable set authentication disable set hb-interval 2 set hb-lost-threshold 6 set helo-holddown 20 set arps 5 set arps-interval 8 set session-pickup enable set link-failed-signal disable set uninterruptable-upgrade enable set vcluster2 disable set override enable set priority 254 set monitor "port4" "port5" "port6" unset pingserver-monitor-interface set pingserver-failover-threshold 0 set pingserver-flip-timeout 60 end |
with the diagnose command the state again:
myfirewall1 # diagnose sys ha status HA information Statistics traffic.local = s:2096712 p:2541238162 b:1972123729708 traffic.total = s:9497465 p:2541238496 b:1972123977459 activity.fdb = c:0 q:0 Model=311, Mode=2 Group=0 Debug=0 nvcluster=1, ses_pickup=1 HA group member information: is_manage_master=1. FG311B1111111111, 0. Master:254 myfirewall1 FG311B1111111112, 1. Slave:128 myfirewall2 vcluster 1, state=work, master_ip=10.0.0.1, master_id=0: FG311B1111111111, 0. Master:254 myfirewall1(prio=0, rev=0) FG311B1111111112, 1. Slave:128 myfirewall2(prio=1, rev=1) |
The secondary cluster unit is off:
myfirewall1 # diagnose sys ha status HA information Statistics traffic.local = s:286117 p:7759897825 b:3064522035872 traffic.total = s:205341071 p:7759897825 b:3064522035872 activity.fdb = c:0 q:0 Model=300, Mode=2 Group=0 Debug=0 nvcluster=1, ses_pickup=1 HA group member information: is_manage_master=1.

Check the session table of the firewall
the values from the session table of the firewall (the max against the used):
myfirewall1 # diag sys session full-stat session table: table_size=65536 max_depth=1 used=2 expect session table: table_size=1024 max_depth=0 used=0 misc info: session_count=1 setup_rate=0 exp_count=0 clash=0 memory_tension_drop=0 ephemeral=0/16368 removeable=0 ha_scan=0 delete=0, flush=0, dev_down=0/0 TCP sessions: 1 in ESTABLISHED state firewall error stat: error1=00000000 error2=00000000 error3=00000000 error4=00000000 tt=00000000 cont=00000000 ids_recv=00000000 url_recv=00000000 av_recv=00000000 fqdn_count=00000000 tcp reset stat: syncqf=0 acceptqf=0 no-listener=11025 data=0 ses=0 ips=0 |
Check the sessions
The following list has only one session, that may be a DNS request from 192.168.227.97 to .the dns server 65.39.139.53.
Do not use this command on live system with many traffic, it lists all sessions and that has no sence.
myfirewall # diag sys session list session info: proto=17 proto_state=01 duration=2214 expire=123 timeout=0 flags=00000000 sockflag=00000000 sockport=0 av_idx=0 use=3 origin-shaper= reply-shaper= per_ip_shaper= ha_id=0 hakey=28310 policy_dir=0 tunnel=/ state=local statistic(bytes/packets/allow_err): org=5095/76/1 reply=8757/75/1 tuples=2 orgin->sink: org out->post, reply pre->in dev=10->12/12->10 gwy=0.0.0.0/192.168.227.97 hook=out dir=org act=noop 192.168.227.97:54223->65.39.139.53:53(0.0.0.0:0) hook=in dir=reply act=noop 65.39.139.53:53->192.168.227.97:54223(0.0.0.0:0) misc=0 policy_id=0 auth_info=0 chk_client_info=0 vd=0 serial=0047c5b4 tos=ff/ff imp2p=0 app=0 dd_type=0 dd_rule_id=0 total session 7 |
You can filter to the session that you looking for (example):
myfirewall1 # diagnose sys session filter src 192.168.227.129 myfirewall1 # diag sys session list … |
2.0 Check the interface settings
Check the state, speed and duplexity an IP of the interfaces
myfirewall1 # get system interface physical == [onboard] ==[internal] mode: static ip: 192.168.224.65 255.255.255.224 ipv6: ::/0 status: up speed: 100Mbps (Duplex: full) ==[wan1] mode: static ip: 3.3.3.3 255.255.254.0 ipv6: ::/0 status: up speed: 100Mbps (Duplex: full) ==[wan2] mode: static ip: 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ipv6: ::/0 status: down speed: n/a ==[modem] mode: pppoe ip: 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ipv6: ::/0 status: down speed: n/a |
Check the MAC and the state of the interfaces. The name of the interface in the example below is internal.
Here you can see following in the output
– Interface name
– MAC
– Link state
– Speed
– Duplex
– MTU
– Packet and Byte counters
– Errors
myfirewall1 # diagnose hardware deviceinfo nic internal Description ip175c-vdev Part_Number N/A Driver_Name ip175c Driver_Version 1.01 System_Device_Name internal Current_HWaddr 00:09:0f:d6:c0:ac Permanent_HWaddr 00:09:0f:d6:c0:ac Link up Speed 100 Duplex full State up (0x00001003) Port_no -1 Port_Bits 0x7 Link_Bits 0x1 MTU_Size 1500 Rx_Packets 694 Tx_Packets 4 Rx_Bytes 80348 Tx_Bytes 214 Rx_Errors 0 Tx_Errors 0 Rx_Dropped 0 Tx_Dropped 0 Multicast 0 Collisions 0 Rx_Length_Errors 0 Rx_Over_Errors 0 Rx_CRC_Errors 0 Rx_Frame_Errors 0 Rx_FIFO_Errors 0 Rx_Missed_Errors 0 Tx_Aborted_Errors 0 Tx_Carrier_Errors 0 Tx_FIFO_Errors 0 Tx_Heartbeat_Errors 0 Tx_Window_Errors 0 |
Check the ARP Table
This contains the permanent and the dynamic ARP entries
myfirewall1 # get system arp Address Age(min) Hardware Addr Interface 4.4.4.66 0 00:08:da:52:33:b6 port4 4.4.4.74 16 00:21:9b:94:38:44 port2 4.4.4.131 0 00:00:0c:07:ac:23 port6 4.4.4.150 1 00:09:0f:09:01:3b port6 4.4.3.3 0 02:00:5e:47:c1:a3 port5 |
3.0 Check the Routing Table
In this example we route everything through a vpn tunnel, called fortigw-311b:
myfirewall1 # get router info routing-table all Codes: K - kernel, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, B - BGP O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2 E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2 i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area * - candidate default S* 0.0.0.0/0 [5/0] is directly connected, fortigw-311b S 10.0.0.0/8 [10/0] via 3.3.3.1, wan1 C 3.3.3.0/23 is directly connected, wan1 S 4.4.3.48/32 [10/0] via 3.3.3.1, wan1 S 4.4.3.66/32 [10/0] via 3.3.3.1, wan1, [0/50] C 192.168.223.17/32 is directly connected, gre1 C 192.168.223.18/32 is directly connected, gre1 C 192.168.224.64/27 is directly connected, internal |
Check the matching route
Are you looking for a spesific route in a big database? No problem use the details:
myfirewall1 # get router info routing-table details 10.20.100.10 Routing entry for 10.0.0.0/8 Known via "static", distance 10, metric 0, best * 3.3.3.1, via wan1 |
4.0 VPN Troubleshooting
The most significant part for vpn is the time on the devices. The check the time use the following command:
myfirewall1 # get sys status Version: Fortigate-50B v4.0,build0632,120705 (MR3 Patch 8) Virus-DB: 14.00000(2011-08-24 17:17) Extended DB: 14.00000(2011-08-24 17:09) IPS-DB: 3.00150(2012-02-15 23:15) FortiClient application signature package: 1.131(2012-07-05 20:54) Serial-Number: FGT50B1234567891 BIOS version: 04000010 Log hard disk: Not available Hostname: myfirewall1 Operation Mode: NAT Current virtual domain: root Max number of virtual domains: 10 Virtual domains status: 1 in NAT mode, 0 in TP mode Virtual domain configuration: disable FIPS-CC mode: disable Current HA mode: standalone Distribution: International Branch point: 632 Release Version Information: MR3 Patch 8 System time: Fri Nov 16 17:31:03 2012 |
Change the tunnel state
Bring up a vpn tunnel manually. No traffic required.
myfirewall # diag vpn tunnel up phase2-name phase1-name |
Shut down a vpn tunnel manually.
myfirewall # diag vpn tunnel down phase2-name phase1-name |
Check the tunnel state
If there is no SA that means the tunnel is down and does not work. To see if the tunnel is up we need to check if any SA exist.
To see if the tunnel is up you can use the diagnose vpn tunnel list name or diagnose vpn tunnel dumpsa command.
Tunnel state is down
Tunnel does not exist if there is no output of the commands below:
myfirewall1 # diagnose vpn tunnel list name myphase1 list ipsec tunnel by names in vd 0 |
with the dumpsa command:
myfirewall1 # diag vpn tunnel dumpsa |
The output of the command below shows zero sa (no security association)
myfirewall3 # diagnose vpn tunnel stat dev=1 tunnel=0 proxyid=1 sa=0 conc=0 up=0 |
Tunnel state is up
Informations from the output of the command below:
– vpn peers
– encrypted traffic (source and destination)
– traffic counters for encrypted traffic
– SPI for encrypt and decrypt
– Encryption method
In the following output the second tunnel with the name fortigw-311b-wlan-ph2 is down.
myfirewall # diagnose vpn tunnel list name fortigw-311b list ipsec tunnel by names in vd 0 ------------------------------------------------------ name=fortigw-311b ver=1 serial=1 2.2.2.2:0->1.1.1.1:0 lgwy=dyn tun=intf mode=auto bound_if=6 proxyid_num=2 child_num=0 refcnt=8 ilast=2 olast=2 stat: rxp=525048 txp=538908 rxb=276286832 txb=115110327 dpd: mode=active on=1 idle=5000ms retry=3 count=0 seqno=671422 natt: mode=none draft=0 interval=0 remote_port=0 proxyid=fortigw-311b-ph2 proto=0 sa=1 ref=2 auto_negotiate=0 serial=1 src: 192.168.10.0/255.255.255.255:0 dst: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:0 SA: ref=3 options=0000000e type=00 soft=0 mtu=1436 expire=1333 replaywin=1024 seqno=2c life: type=01 bytes=0/0 timeout=1750/1800 dec: spi=5bafd6aa esp=3des key=24 8e4c7e9d5916fd00fc6f3fe4e7b35c40431735162c537049 ah=sha1 key=20 2462eaec73cbfc473c9cc59c0b39d976dca8b15f enc: spi=2a05ad80 esp=3des key=24 83f2a4476675a7e810bb467ba0675222e6ad9f5db3ff4fed ah=sha1 key=20 3fdd10286ff936c3608879315bc3958d8112994e proxyid=fortigw-311b-wlan-ph2 proto=0 sa=0 ref=1 auto_negotiate=0 serial=2 src: 192.168.20.0/255.255.255.0:0 dst: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:0 |
In the following output the second tunnel with the name MyIPSecTunnnel is up.
myfirewall1 # diagnose vpn tunnel list name "MyIPSecTunnnel" list ipsec tunnel by names in vd 0 ------------------------------------------------------ name=MyIPSecTunnnel ver=1 serial=1 3.3.3.3:0->4.4.3.48:0 lgwy=dyn tun=intf mode=auto bound_if=5 proxyid_num=1 child_num=0 refcnt=11 ilast=0 olast=0 stat: rxp=196 txp=335 rxb=57600 txb=28419 dpd: mode=active on=1 idle=5000ms retry=3 count=0 seqno=352 natt: mode=none draft=0 interval=0 remote_port=0 proxyid=MyIPSecTunnnel-ph2 proto=0 sa=1 ref=2 auto_negotiate=0 serial=1 src: 0:192.168.224.64/255.255.255.224:0 dst: 0:0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:0 SA: ref=3 options=0000000e type=00 soft=0 mtu=1436 expire=1657 replaywin=1024 seqno=2c life: type=01 bytes=0/0 timeout=1748/1800 dec: spi=be8d94f1 esp=3des key=24 b7d4a72d2c79e1846d54133c4a198085cf22b6c500fc4064 ah=sha1 key=20 0a6b3691b7a887d67b694935b813c7a0339e37d8 enc: spi=9cc4bfdc esp=3des key=24 d77616bc3455f8acee018d5b9b572cbd087da9ff98e816ff ah=sha1 key=20 702f1d1572180f186fb169fef50d64f057281e7b |
In this output are both tunnel up:
myfirewall1 # diag vpn tunnel dumpsa --------------------------------- vf=0 tun=fortigw-311b proxyid=fortigw-311b-wlan-ph2 proto=0 src: 192.168.20.0/255.255.255.0:0 dst: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:0 life: type=01 bytes=0/0 timeout=1750/1800 dec: spi=5bafd6ac esp=3des key=24 944c6e0a4e52d578ce4a3f78f6066eae53ade0bf3aeca236 ah=sha1 key=20 9c0ad72b08bf479e81d9109ac0f7f721c7040b46 enc: spi=2a05ad97 esp=3des key=24 5c8141c750de92321c171b44c5473d82fbac47ae464f3107 ah=sha1 key=20 0724b6b197c0cd157aced122bb6482d2d665e1b2 --------------------------------- vf=0 tun=fortigw-311b proxyid=fortigw-311b-ph2 proto=0 src: 192.168.10.0/255.255.255.0:0 dst: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:0 life: type=01 bytes=0/0 timeout=1753/1800 dec: spi=5bafd6ab esp=3des key=24 506055a1caf78cc42d645a94b226f37375eac8bb618efdc7 ah=sha1 key=20 535c1f8ef20e8b7b6d011fdecfa955cef2085995 enc: spi=2a05ad95 esp=3des key=24 1d710d27da29b773abdf3568200d3b4a2688fbc1fa72f43b ah=sha1 key=20 1d7d6b36084c715e8546369b621effaca60a5ee4 |
with the diagnose command:
myfirewall1 # diagnose vpn tunnel stat dev=1 tunnel=0 proxyid=1 sa=1 conc=0 up=1 |
Check packet counters for the tunnel
To see if the encryption and decryption of the packages works use 2 or more times the diagnose vpn ipsec status or the diagnose vpn tunnel list command and compare the values. On the second and third outputs the counter should show larger number.

5.0 sniffertrace
The basic command is “diagnose sniffer packet”, after that you have to define the interface* (or the keyword any):
myfirewall1 # diagnose sniffer packet the network interface to sniff (or "any") |
*Looks like you cannot filter explicitly on tunnel interface, you have to use any in that case and define a filter string.
And the tcpdump like filter string (or the keyword none):
myfirewall1 # diagnose sniffer packet any flexible logical filters for sniffer (or "none"). For example: To print udp 1812 traffic between forti1 and either forti2 or forti3 'udp and port 1812 and host forti1 and \( forti2 or forti3 \)' |
And the output format you expect (I use always the 4)
myfirewall1 # diagnose sniffer packet any none 1: print header of packets 2: print header and data from ip of packets 3: print header and data from ethernet of packets (if available) 4: print header of packets with interface name 5: print header and data from ip of packets with interface name 6: print header and data from ethernet of packets (if available) with intf name myfirewall1 # diagnose sniffer packet any none 4 sniffer count myfirewall1 # diagnose sniffer packet any none 4 4 interfaces=[any] filters=[none] 0.914475 wan1 in 10.250.19.159.63929 -> 3.3.3.127.61784: 689103397 ack 64745307 0.915067 wan1 out 3.3.3.3.22 -> 10.20.100.10.57499: psh 3728577301 ack 1697425175 0.915079 eth0 out 3.3.3.3.22 -> 10.20.100.10.57499: psh 3728577301 ack 1697425175 0.915452 wan1 out 3.3.3.3.22 -> 10.20.100.10.57499: psh 3728577433 ack 1697425175 |
The 2. parameter after “…port6 arp 1? is the number of packets to be sniffered. In this example it is set to 2.
myfirewall # diagnose sniffer packet port6 arp 1 2 interfaces=[port6] filters=[arp] 0.907592 arp who-has 3.3.3.3 tell 3.3.3.5 1.907597 arp who-has 3.3.3.3 tell 3.3.3.5 myfirewall # |
If the sniffer should be analysed with Wireshark, the following pl script should be used:
fgt2eth.pl

6.0 View logging on cli
There are some fields that you wont ever see in webui as in the column setting you cannot choose them. Just an example for this is a false pre-shared key, the field that tells you what the problem is, called “error_reason”.
The buffer size is limited and if the buffer is full the old logs will be overwritten.
To check your buffer size issue the following command:
myfirewall # get log memory global-setting full-final-warning-threshold: 95 full-first-warning-threshold: 75 full-second-warning-threshold: 90 max-size : 98304 |
Configure logging
To view the logs on the CLI issue the following commands (it is better to use a syslog server as checking the logs from memory, it is slow).
myfirewall # execute log filter device memory myfirewall # execute log filter start-line 1 myfirewall # execute log filter view-lines 10 myfirewall # execute log filter category event |
Check if that is correct for you.
myfirewall # execute log filter dump category: event device: memory roll: 0 start-line: 1 view-lines: 10 |
Viewing the logs
In this example we can sse a failed vpn session as the preshared key is not identical on the vpn peers. The logs are not in every cases so talkative, for example the logs for different encryption traffic failure refer to nothing usefull.
Logs for preshared key failure:
myfirewall3 # execute log display 874 logs found. 10 logs returned.1: 2011-08-31 17:02:33 log_id=0101037127 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=notice fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="progress IPsec phase 1" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="26fb9f49765a425f/a1da24b19fb1f8ce" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=success init=local mode=main dir=outbound stage=3 role=initiator result=OK2: 2011-08-31 17:02:33 log_id=0101037127 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=notice fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="progress IPsec phase 1" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="26fb9f49765a425f/a1da24b19fb1f8ce" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=success init=local mode=main dir=outbound stage=2 role=initiator result=OK3: 2011-08-31 17:02:33 log_id=0101037127 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=notice fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="progress IPsec phase 1" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="26fb9f49765a425f/0000000000000000" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=success init=local mode=main dir=outbound stage=1 role=initiator result=OK4: 2011-08-31 17:02:33 log_id=0101037128 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=error fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="progress IPsec phase 1" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="8cad3acdda13b8dc/49d8c9464e0a85e9" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=failure init=remote mode=main dir=inbound stage=3 role=responder result=ERROR5: 2011-08-31 17:02:33 log_id=0101037124 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=error fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="IPsec phase 1 error" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="8cad3acdda13b8dc/49d8c9464e0a85e9" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=negotiate_error error_reason=probable preshared key mismatch peer_notif=N/A6: 2011-08-31 17:02:31 log_id=0101037128 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=error fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="progress IPsec phase 1" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="8cad3acdda13b8dc/49d8c9464e0a85e9" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=failure init=remote mode=main dir=inbound stage=3 role=responder result=ERROR7: 2011-08-31 17:02:31 log_id=0101037124 type=event subtype=ipsec pri=error fwver=040003 vd="root" msg="IPsec phase 1 error" action="negotiate" rem_ip=1.1.1.1 loc_ip=3.3.3.3 rem_port=500 loc_port=500 out_intf="wan1" cookies="8cad3acdda13b8dc/49d8c9464e0a85e9" user="N/A" group="N/A" xauth_user="N/A" xauth_group="N/A" vpn_tunnel="fortigw-311b" status=negotiate_error error_reason=probable preshared key mismatch peer_notif=N/A |

8.0 Other troubleshooting commands (advices from the visitors)
1. List UTM settings from the command line. If VDOMs are not enabled just run the last line [Sameslug].
config vdom edit ${VDOM_NAME} show firewall policy |
2. This will change a UTM IPS signatures from their default to ALL-PASS or ALL-BLOCK [Sameslug].
config vdom edit ${VDOM_NAME} config ips sensor <<< Start here if VDOMs are not enabled edit ${UTM_IPS_NAME} config entries edit 1 set action [pass|block] <<< Here is where you choose to pass|block – use unset action for signature defaults. end end end |
Thats all folks!
