IP POOL FOR CARRIER-GRADE NAT

* Port block allocation

* Fixed port range

### SD-WAN
+
Key routing principals for SD WAN
+
* By default - SD WAN members are skipped if they don't have a valid route
+
* By default - SD WAN rules are skipped if best route to destination is not a SD WAN member
+
* Regular policy routes have precedence over SD WAN rules
+
+
Additional load balance method supported in ECMP load balanced when SD WAN is enabled
+
* Volume based

CA Certificate when used in SSL Inspection
* KeyUsage extension = KeyCertSign
* CA extension = TRUE
+

+
## Global Settings
+
* Ha settings
+
* FortiGuard settings
+
+
Protect server = DoS policy/log UDP/TCP scan attempts - IPS sensor to monitor signatures for server
+
+
443 used for both management and SSLVPN - SSLVPN will be first
+
+
Limitation of using URL list and APP control on same FW policy
+
* Limits scanning of application traffic to browser based technology category only.
+
+
## VPN
+
### SSLVPN
+
TWO SETTINGS FG > FG
+
* Server FG requires CA to very client FG certificate
+
* Client FG requires the SSL VPPN tunnel interface type to connect SSL VPN
+
### IPSEC
+
## HA
+
* Traffic Flow
+
* SYN Packet from client always goes to primary device first
+
+
* Enable proxy TCP failover
+
* session-pickup-enable
+
+
* FGCP
+
* Elects primary FG device
+
* Runs only over heartbeat links
+
+
## FSSO
+
fsso-polling refresh-user
+
* Refresh all users learned through agentless polling
+
+
+
## Security fabric
+
downstream-access enable

## Diagnostics
+
memory-use-threshold-green
+
* Forti sandbox?
+
memory-use-threshold-red
+
* Memory conserve mode
+
* Cannot change config
+
memory-use-threshold-extreme

* Serial only?

## General NOTES

Proto 1 = ICMP
