FortiClient (Mac OS X) SSL VPN Requirements
When using SSL VPN on Mac OS X 10.8, you must enable SSLv3 in FortiOS.
FortiGate-VM 5.4 for VMware ESXi
Upon upgrading to FortiOS 5.4.4, FortiGate-VM v5.4 for VMware ESXi (all models), no longer supports the VMXNET2 vNIC driver.
FortiClient Profile Changes
With introduction of the Cooperative Security Fabric in FortiOS, FortiClient profiles will be updated on FortiGate. FortiClient profiles and FortiGate are now primarily used for Endpoint Compliance, and FortiClient Enterprise Management Server (EMS) is now used for FortiClient deployment and provisioning.
In the FortiClient profile on FortiGate, when you set the Non-Compliance Action setting to Auto-Update, the
FortiClient profile supports limited provisioning for FortiClient features related to compliance, such as AntiVirus,
Web Filter, Vulnerability Scan, and Application Firewall. When you set the Non-Compliance Action setting to Block or Warn, you can also use FortiClient EMS to provision endpoints, if they require additional other features, such as VPN tunnels or other advanced options. For more information, see the FortiOS Handbook – Security Profiles.
When you upgrade to FortiOS 5.4.1 and later, the FortiClient provisioning capability will no longer be available in FortiClient profiles on FortiGate. FortiGate will be used for endpoint compliance and Cooperative Security Fabric integration, and FortiClient Enterprise Management Server (EMS) should be used for creating custom FortiClient installers as well as deploying and provisioning FortiClient on endpoints. For more information on licensing of EMS, contact your sales representative.
FortiPresence
FortiPresence users must change the FortiGate web administration TLS version in order to allow the connections on all versions of TLS. Use the following CLI command.
config system global set admin-https-ssl-versions tlsv1-0 tlsv1-1 tlsv1-2
end

Users are able to toggle disk usage between Logging and WAN Optimization for single disk FortiGates.
