GUI enhancements to distinguish UTM capable FortiAP models 7.0.4

This enhancement adds several GUI elements to distinguish between UTM capable and incapable FortiAP models. A UTM SSID Compatibility control has been added to Security Rating to check when a UTM SSID is applied to a model that cannot perform UTM scanning.

GUI changes

  • On the FortiAP Profile page, when selecting a SSID that uses security profiles, a warning will appear if the model is not UTM capable.

  • When overriding an SSID, if selecting a UTM SSID, a warning will appear if the model is not UTM capable.
  • On the SSIDs page, when enabling Security Profiles, there is a new warning icon with a tooltip informing you that the profile can only be applied to UTM capable models.

  • UTM capable models has a new icon vs UTM incapable models.

  • A new tooltip key is added when hovering over a FortiAP to display whether the unit is UTM capable or not.

Security Rating check

The Security Rating check can look over your managed FortiAPs and check if any UTM incapable FortiAPs are broadcasting SSIDs that contain security profiles.

To run the Security Rating:
  1. Go to Security Fabric > Security Rating and click Run Now to run the security rating check.
  2. Select the Security Posture scorecard and search for FortiAP UTM SSID Compatibility to find the result.

    If there are any UTM incapable FortiAPs broadcasting SSIDs with security profiles, the result will show as Failed.
