  • [comment u/Jewnius] I've upgraded ±400 Fortigates to 7.4.13, no issues reported so far, just keep in mind the changes of behaviour from 7.2 to 7.4

  • [comment u/gogo_gawdzilla] We only had issues with 1 firewall in HA. For some reason it stopped managing the Fortiswitches and FortiAP connected to it after the firmware was installed. Switched over to the secondary and everything was fine. Rebooted the primary and everything started acting as it should. Otherwise no issues with any of our 40F, 60E, 60F, 61F 70F, 70G (had to manually download upgrade), 80F, 100F...

Some of them, however, have more”

  • “No only they change the behavior for traffic on the same interface. Might not be a problem for most, i think it was in 7.4.10 We had some servers with the incorrect subnet routing traffic in the dmz over de fortigate, but that was a oepsie from our side. config system global set allow-traffic-redirect enable set ipv6-allow-traffic-redirect enable end https://community.fortinet.com/fortigate-3/”
