SSL VPN web portal
The SSL VPN Service portal allows you to access network resources through a secure
channel using a web browser. FortiGate administrators can configure log in privileges for
system users and which network resources are available to the users, such as
HTTP/HTTPS, telnet, FTP, SMB/CIFS, VNC, RDP and SSH.
The portal configuration determines what the system user sees when they log in to the
FortiGate. Both the system administrator and the system user have the ability to
customize the SSL VPN portal.
