Bug ID Description
459424

Statistics on the System > VDOM GUI page may be incorrect.

474410

In-band management through traffic interfaces is not supported for FortiOS 5.6.11.

537861

An FPM of a FortiGate-7000 in an HA cluster may become unresponsive and require a manual restart of the FPM to restore service.

549983

FortiManager in-band management connections to the IP address of a VDOM link interface are not supported.

561722

Firewall policies designed to identify traffic from known devices may not be able to detect traffic from the known devices.

562773

In some cases and more often in an FGCP HA cluster, FortiGuard rating services may not be synchronized to all FPCs or FPMs.

570796

Scheduled FortiGuard updates of a HA cluster may cause management heartbeat loss resulting in an HA failover.

575568

Transparent mode HA may not respond as expected if a monitored interface goes down but then comes back up quickly. In this situation gratuitous ARP packets may fail to update the mac addresses on attached switches.

575916

During a graceful upgrade of a FortiGate-6000 HA cluster, the backup FortiGate-6000 may become the primary before all of the FPCs in the new primary FortiGate-6000 are synchronized.

578485

During a graceful upgrade of a FortiGate-7000 HA cluster, the backup FortiGate-7000 may become the primary before all of the FPMs in the new primary FortiGate-7000 are running the new firmware image.

579284

A segmentation fault (signal 11) may cause version 3.543 of the IPS engine to crash.

579836

Adding and removing multiple VLAN interfaces may cause error messages to appear on the CLI and can result in the CLI and GUI becoming unresponsive. A system restart may be required to access the system.

583124

Incorrect usage information may be sent to a RADIUS server. Usage information can include the amount of data downloaded by a user or the amount of time that a user is connected.

584078

Server load balancing real server status may not be synchronized to all FPCs or FPMs.

584127

In some cases, changes to active firewall policies may not be synchronized to all FPCs or FPMs.

584420

Because of synchronization issues between FPCs or FPMs, a captive portal configuration may block user access after the user has successfully authenticated.

584800

The confsyncd process may crash when adding or deleting multiple VDOMs.

585239

Traffic logs may show unexpected results because outgoing short-lived UDP sessions may be directed to the wrong FPC or FPM.
