Schedules

When you add security policies on a FortiProxy unit, those policies are always on, policing the traffic through the device. Schedules control when policies are in effect.

The schedule list lists all of the schedules. Recurring and one-time schedules can be created, edited, and deleted as needed.

You can create a recurring schedule that activates a policy during a specified period of time. If a recurring schedule has a stop time that is earlier than the start time, the schedule will take effect at the start time but end at the stop time on the next day. You can use this technique to create recurring schedules that run from one day to the next. To create a recurring schedule that runs for 24 hours, set the start and stop times to 00.

You can create one-time schedules, which are schedules that are in effect only once for the period of time specified in the schedule.

To manage schedules, go to Policy & Objects > Schedules.

Hover over the leftmost edge of the column heading to display the Configure Table icon, which you can use to select the columns to display or to reset all the columns to their default settings. You can also drag column headings to change their order.
