Add a time frame selector to the log viewer pages, so the logs can be loaded more efficiently.

  • Logs sourced from FortiAnalyzer and FortiCloud have the same time frame selection options as FortiView.
  • Logs sourced from disk have options to select 5 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days, or None.

Add visibility for configuring advanced options for wireless features in the FortiGate wireless controller GUI:

  • Add navigation entries under the WiFi & Switch Controller menu:
    • Operation Profiles: includes tabs to configure FortiAP, QoS, and FortiAP configuration profiles
    • Connectivity Profiles: includes tabs to configure MPSK and bonjour profiles
    • Protection Profiles: includes tabs to configure WIDS and L3 firewall (also known as L3 access control list configurations for FortiAPs) profiles
  • Additional advanced options for wireless features under the SSIDs and WiFi Settings entries.

Add IoT device information to the Security Fabric > Asset Identity Center page, including the device name, software OS, hardware vendor, status, IP address, hostname, time last seen, port, VLAN, and so on.

Enhance the Managed FortiExtenders tab on the Network > FortiExtenders page with additional monitoring features:

  • Add two charts for displaying Status and Mode.
  • Update Status column with Online, Offline, and Waiting For Authorization states.
  • Add default Details column populated with the data used by the modem/SIM card when FortiExtender is in WAN extension mode, or the connected IPsec tunnel used with the FortiGate when FortiExtender is in LAN extension mode.
  • When FortiExtender is in WAN extension mode, display modem information by left-clicking or hovering the mouse over the FortiExtender name to show a tooltip then clicking Diagnostics and Tools.
  • Make the Serial # column optional (previously this was a default column).

Enhance the Profile tab on the Network > FortiExtenders page with two charts for displaying Status and Mode.

Update the Log & Report > System Events and Security Events pages:

  • Rename the Details tab to Logs tab.
  • Update the filters used in the log viewer to adjust the log filters and the Log Details pane.
  • Update the time frame settings for each Log & Report page so they are independent of each other.

Add Network > IPAM GUI page to centralize all IP address management (IPAM) details within three new tabs: IPAM Interfaces, IPAM Rules, and IPAM Settings.

This page is only viewable on a FortiGate that is not in a Security Fabric, or on the root FortiGate in a Security Fabric. In a Security Fabric, downstream FortiGates will receive a notification to view the root FortiGate.

This new page replaces the IPAM dashboard widget and IPAM connector card within Security Fabric > Fabric Connectors, which have been removed.

When viewing the IPAM interfaces tab, IP conflict markers are displayed to notify an administrator of IPAM pool IP conflicts with manually configured IPs and prompts administrators to use the Edit Interface dialog to manually resolve the conflict by changing the interfaces' IP/netmask settings.

Advanced BGP options can be configured in the GUI on the Network > BGP page, including: the BGP neighbor local AS, hold time timer, keepalive timer, and enforcing eBGP multihop. The View in Routing Monitor buttons in the right-side of the screen can display the BGP neighbors list, the BGP IPv4 routing table, or the BGP IPv6 routing table in a slide-out window instead of redirecting to the monitor page. The Routing monitor includes an option to soft reset a neighbor from the BGP neighbors list.

Enhance the Summary tabs on the System Events and Security Events pages under Log & Report:

  • Each event list footer shows the number of events related to that type.
  • In the top-left corner of the page, the number of total events is displayed. Hovering over the number displays number of events with a time stamp.
  • Clicking on any event entry or table title redirects to the log page with start and end time stamp as a filter.
  • On the System Events > Summary tab, hovering on the Total Events By Level label in the chart legend shows a tooltip of the total number of events with a time stamp.
