Creating FSSO connectors
You can create SSO/identity connectors for Fortinet single sign-on (FSSO) agents.
FSSO is the authentication protocol by which users can transparently authenticate to FortiGate, FortiClient EMS, FortiAuthenticator, and FortiCache devices.
To create FSSO connectors:

When you have an FSSO polling server configured on the FortiManager fabric connector, FortiManager will import and install all fsso-polling objects to managed FortiGate devices in the ADOM, including to devices that do not have references to the polling objects in their policies. user adgrp objects are also imported and installed if any fsso-polling objects are copied. |
