ZTNA certificates

Zero trust network access (ZTNA) certificate provisioning requires Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 on the endpoint with one of the following:

  • Maximum of TLS 1.2 in FortiOS
  • Maximum of TLS 1.3 in FortiOS if the TPM 2.0 implementation in the endpoint supports RSA PSS signatures

For ZTNA tags for checking certificates, FortiClient (Linux) does not check user certificates and only checks root certificate authority certificates installed on the system. These routes are:

Operating system

Route

Ubuntu

/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt

  • CentOS
  • Red Hat

/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt

Installation of FortiClient fails on Ubuntu 23.10

FortiClient (Linux) installation fails on Ubuntu 23.10. The workaround is to manually install the following packages on the Linux endpoint before installing FortiClient on Ubuntu 23.10:

apt install gconf2-common_3.2.6-8_all.deb

apt install libgconf-2-4_3.2.6-8_amd64.deb
