Azure AD SSO with FortiGate SSL VPN

Hello there,

I'm trying to integrate our FortiGate appliance with Azure AD so that our end users can sign into the SSL VPN application via their domain Azure AD credentials. I have direct access to the FortiGate via HTTPS and SSH but the appliance is managed by a third party.

I have followed the tutorial published on MS Docs https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/saas-apps/fortigate-ssl-vpn-tutorial. My problem is happening when I get to the following section https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/saas-apps/fortigate-ssl-vpn-tutorial and is that the FortiGate does not understand the saml command in the first line.

After speaking with my third party support team they have suggested that the document mustn't be written to support their version of the FortiGate but FortiGate version's aren't mentioned in the pre-requisites. The version we're running is v6.0.10.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Guys,

Just in case anyone comes across this in the future. Your FortiGate needs to be at least version 6.2 to support SAML authentication.

Cheers,

Luke.
