Note

While a proxy is configured, FortiGate uses the following URLs to access the FortiGuard Distribution Network (FDN):

  • update.fortiguard.net
  • service.fortiguard.net
  • support.fortinet.com
Note

Enabling some services will cause additional standard ports to open as the protocol necessitates. For example, enabling BGP will open TCP port 179. See View open and in use ports for more information.
