Nicely done! I am a network engineer at an enterprise company, and we have Meraki at all the plant locations but have FortiGate in the cloud. I personally dislike Meraki for multiple reasons. Hoping to move to Fortinet in the future. Meraki is great for an SMB, but not enterprise.
Thanks for the video, it did help, but I had to contact Fortigate because the tunnel would not come up. It turned out that the Fortigate was advertising the FQDN and not the public IP. We had to enter the command "set localid-type address" and then both ends came up.
I was wondering - we have a Meraki Mesh ( Auto hub ) of 6 units in various states. Got the Fortigate to establish a tunnel from one of the Merakis in the mesh, but how would you go about creating the rest of the tunnels on the fortigate side, any tricks because we have tried duplicating what is working for the first, and no dice every time.
diag deb application ike 4 .. and you'll see all Ph1 and Ph2 messaging, don't forget to apply the filter for the specific tunnel. Plus, you have to mention how Fortigate handles Ph2 SA per subnet vs Cisco or Meraki .
Appreciate the video Alex! First time setting up VPN tunnel between MX and FortiGate, and this worked out perfectly for me.

Tkx Alex!! This video saved me today!
Have a nice day! Mr Alex. Could you help to share the topology in this video ? ( Fortinet and Meraki MX ). Thank you so much.

Can you do a video about fortiauthenticator?
Is there a specific feature around FortiAuthenticator your looking for a video on?
Thank you
One of this was “simplified.” Clearly needed more rehearsing and constantly talked over each other. Also, way way way too long. Simple = better.
