SD-WAN Improvements
You can centrally provision SD-WAN templates by specifying SD-WAN interface members, WAN link performance criteria and application routing priority.
Object dynamic mapping is now supported in SD-WAN templates, and the settings defined in the SD-WAN templates can be installed to the managed FortiGates.
SD-WAN Central Template
From the Device Manager pane, you can now configure a central SD-WAN template, and then install the settings in the SD-WAN template to multiple FortiGates.
SD-WAN Monitoring
You can now centrally monitor SD-WAN performance:
- Map View displays SD-WAN enabled devices on Google Map with color coded icons. Mouse over to view health performance statistics for each SD-WAN link member
- Table View provides more granular information on each SD-WAN link member such as link status, applications performance and their bandwidth usage.
Export IPS and Application Information to a CSV File
You can export IPS or Application signature information to a CSV file from the Intrusion Prevention or Application Control profiles under the Object Configuration menu.
Export Device List to CSV
You can now export the device list table to a CSV file from the Device Manager > Device & Groups tab.
Find and Replace Objects
Find and Replace option is now available by right-clicking an object from the policy table. It finds all occurrences of the selected object and allows to replace one or multiple occurrences by one-click.
Fortinet Security Fabric Rating
Security Fabric Rating can now be centrally managed from FortiManager. You can view the summary report of the latest security best practice tests or run tests on demand for the selected security fabric cluster.
Automatic Policy Package Install for Offline Devices
From the Install Wizard, the offline devices are now available for a policy package install. If selected, the device database of the offline devices will be updated, and the policy package will be automatically pushed to the devices once they are back online.
Workspace Device Lock
When Workspace mode is enabled, you can now apply a lock to one or multiple devices to make configuration changes from the Device Manager.
Workflow Improvements
When workflow mode is enabled, users now have an option to preview their diff before submitting the changes.
AP Manager Floor Map Support
A floor map image file can be imported to the AP Manager pane from the Map View tab. The managed FortiAPs can then be placed on the floor map for easy monitoring.
