995919 Cannot config system password-policy expire-day for FortiGates.
1004220 The SD-WAN Overlay template creates route-map names that exceed the 35-character limit.

1021789

The FortiManager SD-WAN widget's health check status is not functioning as expected.

1041265 While using a Device Blueprint to apply a pre-run cli template and creating model devices via CSV import, the pre-run does not show applied in Device Manager.

1071249

Under Device Manager > Monitors > SD-WAN Monitor, there are some missing data on widgets Bandwidth Overview and Traffic Growth.

1073479 Install preview does not function properly.
1079654 Firewall address entries are incorrectly generated when creating a bridge/mesh-type SSID.
1080940 In an IPSEC tunnel template, deleting an IPSEC tunnel that is not the last one in the template causes the configuration of the last remaining tunnel to disappear when you revisit the template.
1085385 Importing SD-WAN configuration previously completed on a FortiGate as a provisioning template in FortiManager returns "Response format error" message.
1086303

An installation error may occur when binding and installing the created VLAN interface to the software switch due to ip-managed-by-fortiipam. No issues have been observed with the installation of VLAN interfaces or physical interfaces.

1089102 Metadata variable value cannot be emptied (value deleted) after a value has been set via Edit Variable Mapping for a model device.
1094451 If the Timezone field in the System Template is left blank, FortiManager may apply its default timezone and overwrite the existing timezone on the FortiGates.
1099270 Unable to upgrade of FortiGate HA devices via Firmware Templates.
1103166 Installation wizard might stuck at 50% if the device has Jinja CLI template assigned.
1110780

FortiManager does not allow creating the local-in policy with SD-WAN zone.

1111432

When a FortiGate HA failover occurs, making any configuration changes on the FortiGate HA may cause FortiManager to attempt to purge the firewall policies on the device during the installation (Install Device Settings (only)).

1124171

FortiManager retrieves the device configuration from the ZTP FortiGate after the image upgrade is performed, due to the 'Enforce Firmware' feature. This action erases all settings in the device database on the FortiManager side, and as a result, AutoLink installation will not be completed successfully.

1126321 When creating a VLAN with "LAN" Role, an object is created even if "Create Address Object Matching Subnet" is disabled.
1128094 After upgrading to v7.2.10, the entries under Network Monitor > Routing (Static & Dynamic) no longer appear.

1136080

Starting from FortiOS version 7.2.11, FortiGate devices use a different password type for the administrator's password field. FortiManager versions released before this change cannot verify the administrator password when installing to a FortiGate, which may result in an installation failure.

FortiSwitch Manager

1052341

Not able to select Address type MAC in SD-WAN rule source address.

1089725

Progressively slower GUI performance caused by increasing memory usage of the "init" daemon.

1091375

When the install is waiting for a session, it neither updates nor completes the task.

1104486 Configuring auto-virtual-mac-interface from FortiManager may unexpectedly unset the virtual-mac in the interface during verification.
1105387

The upgrade task failed when the FortiManager attempted to send the image to the FortiGates. The image file transfer between FortiManager and FortiGate appeared to fail over the FGFM tunnel. FortiManager timed out and was unable to retrieve the FortiGate version (first observed in FortiGate version 7.6.1)

1106312 The Table View and Device History sections under the SD-WAN Manager's Network tab do not properly display all detailed information, such as Interfaces, Link Mode, and other relevant data. (This issue was initially reported in relation to FortiGate 7.6.1).

Policy and Objects

Bug ID Description
968149 Unable to export policy package to CSV.
986256

When creating the application list on the FortiManager, if the Category ID is set to 33 or 34, the installation does not display any errors. However, these invalid categories cannot be set on the FortiGate. Consequently, the assigned application list entry will be created without a specific category and will default to the "block" action. This behavior may cause network interruptions.

1030914 Copy and paste function in GUI removes name of the policy rule and adds unwanted default security profiles (SSL-SSH no-inspection and default PROTOCOL OPTIONS).
1047850 Error occurs when modifying any route maps: 'Cannot save route maps: rule/[id]/set-priority: out of range...'.
1073463 Installation is failed with error "VIP entry cannot be moved when central-nat is disabled."

1108159 IP address list for an ISDB object differ between FortiManager and managed FortiGate while both devices have installed the same ISDB definitions.
1109061 FortiManager tries to set the inspection mode for the deny policies.
1112011

When a policy package contains a globally assigned policy, installing a local ADOM policy package (with the "Install On" feature enabled for a specific device) may not function properly. The policy could be installed on all devices instead of the intended one.

1112917

Unable to set or update a security profile group on a policy directly in the firewall or proxy policy view.

1113129 FortiManager is treating implicit-deny local-in policy incorrectly, denying any traffic.

1116489

The revision history time stamps for custom profiles are all showing the same.

1119299 Installation fails due to syntax compatibility issues between FortiManager and FortiGate version 7.2.10. Specifically, the issue occurs when FortiManager attempts to unset the servercert in the vpn ssl settings.
1130475 FortiManager starts appending an ID to the global-label associated with policies. This can cause a problem if global labels are being used to group policies together.
1131552 Import fails due to an invalid remote certificate, even though the certificate is available on the FortiGate.
1132984 FortiManager is not updating SSL inspection settings.
1133553 Unused policy tool showing No hit count report for this policy package message when policy block is added to policy package.

System Settings

Bug ID

Description

1108205

ADOM lock override does not work even though lock-preempt has been enabled.

1115464

When any interfaces have the serviceaccess feature enabled (fgtupdates, fclupdates, and webfilter-antispam), changing the IP address on the desired interfaces may not immediately affect the listing port for that IP. As a result, the user might not be able to access the GUI using the newly configured IP address (assuming default port 443 is being used).

1121608

Under the Dashboard > Sessions widget, the number of current sessions presented in FortiManager does not match the number of sessions in the FortiGate.

VPN Manager

Bug ID

Description

1084434
