PKI authentication
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) authentication utilizes a certificate authentication
library that takes a list of ‘peers’, ‘peer’ groups, and/or user groups and returns
authentication ‘successful’ or ‘denied’ notifications. Users only need a valid
certificate for successful authentication - no username or password are
necessary.
For more information about certificate authentication, see the
FortiGate Certificate
Management User Guide.
For information about the detailed PKI configuration
settings only available through the CLI, see the
FortiGate CLI Reference.
