Which license do I need to purchase for ZTNA? Do I need to purchase license on both FortiClient and FortiGate? You need to only purchase FortiClient ZTNA License. No additional ZTNA specific license is required on FortiGate working as ZTNA Gateway. What is the best migration path to Full ZTNA using FortiGate as a ZTNA Gateway?
ZTNA Tags are not synchronized with Fortigate
Hello all!I have some questions regarding some basics of the Fortinet ZTNA setup. I did go through the ZTNA and FortiEMS training but just wanted some things clarified if possible.1st Dumb Question - Is the ZTNA Server just one of my Fortigate Firewalls? (It's not another physical box/server I have to setup right?) It seems like if I have two locations, each Fortigate could be a ZTNA server for access to the resources that are located there. Both would have to be joined via the Fabric connectors and one of those would have to serve as the "Fabric Root".If the above is true, when I'm setting up my ZTNA Server on one of the Fortigates, for the external IP, can I just choose any IP that's associated with my assigned block, and would I then connect via that IP address for access resources externally? (Let's say I have 123.123.123.1-50 for my external IPs, can I just set that external IP to 123.123.123.5, then if I setup rules to access SMB let's say, when I map a network drive from home, would I just be utilizing that ZTNA server IP I chose (the .5), or am I able to use existing assigned external IPs for resources and the external ZTNA server IP has nothing to do with those?I apologize for some of these basic questions, but the documentation and training didn't cover some of this very well (it just says "Setup your ZTNA server and assign these things").
