Additional Notes

This section describes some generic guidelines/information to using FortiPresence VM.

  • Any create and delete operation can take up to a maximum of 3 minutes to be visible on the FortiPresence VM GUI.
  • For setups involving multiple devices (FortiWLC/FortiGate) behind the NAT sharing the same public IP address, you are required to create a RADIUS client entry for each device type on the FortiPresence VM GUI.
  • FortiWLC: The FortiWLC SSID must be configured in the tunnel mode; SSIDs in the bridge mode are NOT supported for Captive Portals.
  • FortiGate/FortiLAN Cloud: While configuring settings on SSID, set the Redirect URL to Specific URL and configure https://<FortiPresence Connect FQDN>/portal/success as the URL.
