Cannot use GUI on Fortigate through EVE-NG on Azure

Question

Hello,
I installed an EVE-NG on Azure, and then added a Fortigate to EVE-NG.
When I create a node as Fortigate, I can connect to Fortigate through Telnet (Public address + Port number of 32769), but I am not able to connect to GUI Fortigate through http. Could you please help me how I can connect to its GUI?

Hi @Mohammad H. Faridi ,

I would suggest that you do a TCP connection test to the VM on HTTP Port 80 and check if connections are going through. If yes, then you would have to reach out to Fortigate team to further investigate why the GUI connection to the appliance isn't working.

If TCP connection on port 80 fails, then please check the NSG rules configured for the VM on subnet as well as NIC level to identify if there are any blocks. Additionally you can also verify the Firewall rules within the VM configuration.

Hope this helps. Do feel free to reach out in case of any additional questions or concerns.
