Solved: How do I match the SSL-VPN user to all the groups when it is authenticated?

This article describes how we to match the SSL-VPN user to all the group once it is authenticated on SSL-VPN.

Solution

Step 1: ‘sslvpntest1’ has been used as a sample SSL-VPN user.

Step 2: The ‘sslvpntest1’ is a member of ‘sslvpngrp1’, ‘sslvpngrp2’, ‘sslvpngrp3’, ‘sslvpngrp4’ and ‘sslvpngrp5’.

Step 3: Make sure that to have configured IPV4 POLICY for all those group that the ‘sslvpntest1’ is part of.

Step 4: Once the ‘sslvpntest1’ authenticates on SSL-VPN, all the groups that the ‘sslvpntest1’ is part of under FIREWALL USER MONITOR are visible.

Step 5: And in CLI by running this command:

# get vpn ssl monitor

Step 6: For debugging, run this command.

# diag debug app fnbamd -1
# diag debug en

Step 7: Then here is a sample log that would show how the FortiGate matches the ‘sslvpntest1’ to all the group that it is part of after it authenticates on SSL-VPN.
