Appendix A - FortiGuard Distribution Servers (FDS)
In order for FortiManager to request and retrieve updates from FDS, and for FortiManager to serve as an FDS, please configure the necessary settings on all devices between FortiManager and FDS, or between FortiManager and FortiGate devices based on the following items:
-
FortiManager accesses FDS for antivirus and attack updates through TCP/SSL port 443.
-
If there is a proxy server between FortiManager and FDS, FortiManager uses port 443 to communicate with the proxy server in tunnel mode by default. Alternatively, you can configure web proxy to use proxy mode using port 80. For more information, see the FortiManager Administration Guide.
