Create or edit a policy

New policies can be created by selecting Create New in the toolbar. By default, the new policy appears at the bottom of the policy list. New policies can also be created above or below an existing policy by right-clicking a policy name and selecting Insert Empty Policy Above or Insert Empty Policy Below or by copying or cutting an existing policy and then selecting Paste Above or Paste Below from the right-click menu.

Editing a policy

Policy information can be edited as required in four ways:

By double-clicking on the sequence number of a policy or the policy name in the policy list
By selecting a policy and then selecting Edit from the toolbar
By hovering over the policy name and then selecting Edit (the pencil icon)
By right-clicking on the sequence number of the policy or the policy name and selecting Edit from the right-click menu

The editing window for regular policies contains the same information as when creating new policies.

Policy types

There are six types of policies:

Explicit—for an explicit web proxy policy.

Use an explicit web proxy policy if you want to use the explicit web proxy.

You can use the FortiProxy explicit web proxy to enable explicit proxying of IPv4 and IPv6 HTTP, and HTTPS traffic on one or more FortiProxy interfaces. The explicit web proxy also supports proxying FTP sessions from a web browser and proxy auto-config (PAC) to provide automatic proxy configurations for explicit web proxy users. From the CLI, you can also configure the explicit web proxy to support SOCKS sessions from a web browser.

The explicit web and FTP proxies can be operating at the same time on the same or on different FortiProxy interfaces.

The explicit web proxy receives web browser sessions to be proxied at FortiProxy interfaces with the explicit web proxy enabled. The explicit web proxy uses FortiProxy routing to route sessions through the FortiProxy unit to a destination interface. Before a session leaves the exiting interface, the explicit web proxy changes the source addresses of the session packets to the IP address of the exiting interface. You can configure the explicit web proxy to keep the original client IP address.
Transparent—for a transparent firewall policy.

Use a transparent firewall policy if you want to use the transparent web proxy.

In addition to the explicit web proxy, the FortiProxy unit supports a transparent web proxy. While it does not have as many features as explicit web proxy, the transparent proxy has the advantage that nothing needs to be done on the userʼs system to forward supported web traffic over to the proxy. There is no need to reconfigure the browser or publish a PAC file. Everything is transparent to the end user, hence the name. This makes it easier to incorporate new users into a proxy deployment.

You can use the transparent proxy to apply web authentication to HTTP traffic accepted by a firewall policy.

On networks where authentication based on IP address will not work, you can use the transparent web proxy to apply web authentication that is based on the userʼs browser and not on their IP address. This authentication method allows you to identify individual users even if multiple users on your network are connecting to the FortiProxy unit from the same IP address.
FTP—for an explicit FTP proxy policy.

Use an explicit FTP proxy policy if you want to use the explicit FTP proxy.

You can use the FortiProxy explicit FTP proxy to enable explicit FTP proxying on one or more FortiProxy interfaces. The explicit web and FTP proxies can be operating at the same time on the same or on different FortiProxy interfaces.

The FTP proxy receives FTP sessions to be proxied at FortiProxy interfaces with the explicit FTP proxy enabled. The FTP proxy uses FortiProxy routing to route sessions through the FortiProxy unit to a destination interface. Before a session leaves the exiting interface, the explicit FTP proxy changes the source addresses of the session packets to the IP address of the exiting interface.
SSH Tunnel—to perform access control for TCP/IP port forwarding traffic that is tunneled through the SSH proxy.
SSH Proxy—to apply a proxy firewall policy with user authentication on SSH sessions.
Wanopt—for a WAN optimization tunnel.

All optimized traffic passes between the FortiProxy units or between a FortiClient peer and a FortiProxy unit over a WAN optimization tunnel. Traffic in the tunnel can be sent in plain text or encrypted using AES-128bit-CBC SSL.

Both plain text and the encrypted tunnels use TCP destination port 7810.

Before a tunnel can be started, the peers must be configured to authenticate with each other. Then, the clientside peer attempts to start a WAN optimization tunnel with the server-side peer. Once the peers authenticate with each other, they bring up the tunnel and WAN optimization communication over the tunnel starts. After a tunnel has been established, multiple WAN optimization sessions can start and stop between peers without restarting the tunnel.

Web cache policy address formats

A source or destination address can contain one or more network addresses. Network addresses can be represented by an IP address with a netmask or an IP address range.

When representing hosts by an IP address with a netmask, the IP address can represent one or more hosts. For example, a source or destination address can be any of the following:

a single computer, for example, 192.45.46.45
a subnetwork, for example, 192.168.1.* for a class C subnet
0.0.0.0 matches any IP address

The netmask corresponds to the subnet class of the address being added and can be represented in either dotted decimal or CIDR format. The FortiProxy unit automatically converts CIDR-formatted netmasks to dotted decimal format. Example formats:

netmask for a single computer: 255.255.255.255 or /32
netmask for a class A subnet: 255.0.0.0 or /8
netmask for a class B subnet: 255.255.0.0 or /16
netmask for a class C subnet: 255.255.255.0 or /24
netmask including all IP addresses: 0.0.0.0

Valid IP address and netmask formats include:

x.x.x.x/x.x.x.x, such as 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
x.x.x.x/x, such as 192.168.1.0/24

An IP address 0.0.0.0 with the netmask 255.255.255.255 is not a valid source or destination address.

When representing hosts by an IP address range, the range indicates hosts with continuous IP addresses in a subnet, such as 192.168.1.[2-10], or 192.168.1.*, to indicate the complete range of hosts on that subnet. You can also indicate the complete range of hosts on a subnet by entering 192.168.1.[0-255] or 192.168.1.0-192.168.1.255. Valid IP range formats include:

x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x, for example, 192.168.110.100-192.168.110.120
x.x.x.[x-x], for example, 192.168.110.[100-120]
x.x.x.*, for a complete subnet, for example: 192.168.110.*
x.x.x.[0-255] for a complete subnet, such as 192.168.110.[0-255]
x.x.x.0 -x.x.x.255 for a complete subnet, such as 192.168.110.0 - 192.168.110.255

You cannot use square brackets [ ] or asterisks * when adding addresses to the CLI. Instead you must enter the start and end addresses of the subnet range separated by a dash -. For example, 192.168.20.0-192.168.20.255 for a complete subnet and 192.168.10.10-192.168.10.100 for a range of addresses.

Device ownership

When device ownership is enabled, ownership enforcement is done at policy level. It is disabled by default.

To enable device ownership:

config firewall policy
    edit 2
        set ztna-status enable
        set ztna-ems-tag "FCTEMS_ALL_FORTICLOUD_SERVERS"
        set device-ownership enable
        ...
    next
end

Create or edit a policy

Editing a policy

Policy information can be edited as required in four ways:

By double-clicking on the sequence number of a policy or the policy name in the policy list
By selecting a policy and then selecting Edit from the toolbar
By hovering over the policy name and then selecting Edit (the pencil icon)
By right-clicking on the sequence number of the policy or the policy name and selecting Edit from the right-click menu

The editing window for regular policies contains the same information as when creating new policies.

Policy types

There are six types of policies:

Explicit—for an explicit web proxy policy.

Use an explicit web proxy policy if you want to use the explicit web proxy.

You can use the FortiProxy explicit web proxy to enable explicit proxying of IPv4 and IPv6 HTTP, and HTTPS traffic on one or more FortiProxy interfaces. The explicit web proxy also supports proxying FTP sessions from a web browser and proxy auto-config (PAC) to provide automatic proxy configurations for explicit web proxy users. From the CLI, you can also configure the explicit web proxy to support SOCKS sessions from a web browser.

The explicit web and FTP proxies can be operating at the same time on the same or on different FortiProxy interfaces.

The explicit web proxy receives web browser sessions to be proxied at FortiProxy interfaces with the explicit web proxy enabled. The explicit web proxy uses FortiProxy routing to route sessions through the FortiProxy unit to a destination interface. Before a session leaves the exiting interface, the explicit web proxy changes the source addresses of the session packets to the IP address of the exiting interface. You can configure the explicit web proxy to keep the original client IP address.
Transparent—for a transparent firewall policy.

Use a transparent firewall policy if you want to use the transparent web proxy.

In addition to the explicit web proxy, the FortiProxy unit supports a transparent web proxy. While it does not have as many features as explicit web proxy, the transparent proxy has the advantage that nothing needs to be done on the userʼs system to forward supported web traffic over to the proxy. There is no need to reconfigure the browser or publish a PAC file. Everything is transparent to the end user, hence the name. This makes it easier to incorporate new users into a proxy deployment.

You can use the transparent proxy to apply web authentication to HTTP traffic accepted by a firewall policy.

On networks where authentication based on IP address will not work, you can use the transparent web proxy to apply web authentication that is based on the userʼs browser and not on their IP address. This authentication method allows you to identify individual users even if multiple users on your network are connecting to the FortiProxy unit from the same IP address.
FTP—for an explicit FTP proxy policy.

Use an explicit FTP proxy policy if you want to use the explicit FTP proxy.

You can use the FortiProxy explicit FTP proxy to enable explicit FTP proxying on one or more FortiProxy interfaces. The explicit web and FTP proxies can be operating at the same time on the same or on different FortiProxy interfaces.

The FTP proxy receives FTP sessions to be proxied at FortiProxy interfaces with the explicit FTP proxy enabled. The FTP proxy uses FortiProxy routing to route sessions through the FortiProxy unit to a destination interface. Before a session leaves the exiting interface, the explicit FTP proxy changes the source addresses of the session packets to the IP address of the exiting interface.
SSH Tunnel—to perform access control for TCP/IP port forwarding traffic that is tunneled through the SSH proxy.
SSH Proxy—to apply a proxy firewall policy with user authentication on SSH sessions.
Wanopt—for a WAN optimization tunnel.

All optimized traffic passes between the FortiProxy units or between a FortiClient peer and a FortiProxy unit over a WAN optimization tunnel. Traffic in the tunnel can be sent in plain text or encrypted using AES-128bit-CBC SSL.

Both plain text and the encrypted tunnels use TCP destination port 7810.

Before a tunnel can be started, the peers must be configured to authenticate with each other. Then, the clientside peer attempts to start a WAN optimization tunnel with the server-side peer. Once the peers authenticate with each other, they bring up the tunnel and WAN optimization communication over the tunnel starts. After a tunnel has been established, multiple WAN optimization sessions can start and stop between peers without restarting the tunnel.

Web cache policy address formats

A source or destination address can contain one or more network addresses. Network addresses can be represented by an IP address with a netmask or an IP address range.

When representing hosts by an IP address with a netmask, the IP address can represent one or more hosts. For example, a source or destination address can be any of the following:

a single computer, for example, 192.45.46.45
a subnetwork, for example, 192.168.1.* for a class C subnet
0.0.0.0 matches any IP address

netmask for a single computer: 255.255.255.255 or /32
netmask for a class A subnet: 255.0.0.0 or /8
netmask for a class B subnet: 255.255.0.0 or /16
netmask for a class C subnet: 255.255.255.0 or /24
netmask including all IP addresses: 0.0.0.0

Valid IP address and netmask formats include:

x.x.x.x/x.x.x.x, such as 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0
x.x.x.x/x, such as 192.168.1.0/24

An IP address 0.0.0.0 with the netmask 255.255.255.255 is not a valid source or destination address.

x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x, for example, 192.168.110.100-192.168.110.120
x.x.x.[x-x], for example, 192.168.110.[100-120]
x.x.x.*, for a complete subnet, for example: 192.168.110.*
x.x.x.[0-255] for a complete subnet, such as 192.168.110.[0-255]
x.x.x.0 -x.x.x.255 for a complete subnet, such as 192.168.110.0 - 192.168.110.255

Device ownership

When device ownership is enabled, ownership enforcement is done at policy level. It is disabled by default.

To enable device ownership:

config firewall policy
    edit 2
        set ztna-status enable
        set ztna-ems-tag "FCTEMS_ALL_FORTICLOUD_SERVERS"
        set device-ownership enable
        ...
