Fortigate FortiOS 3.0 MR4 is out

FortiOS 3.0 MR4 (build 474) is now out. This is the changes I've found when looking through the GUI.

Full details are found here.

  • Support for VoIP - SIP and SCCP.
  • The dashboard is now configurable. You can add content and remove content (web parts) as you wish.
  • You can add secondary IP addresses to an interface - each with its own ping server (to check for bad gateways.)
  • HA mode now allows you to configure interface priority for heartbeat. This feature went out in the original 3.0 release.
  • You now can backup your configuration using SCP.
  • You can now "Submit attack characteristics to FortiGuard Service Network to help improve IPS signature quality".
  • You now can add "remote" types of certificates. I'm not quite sure what I can use to for yet. But I belive it's used to verify the certificate for the other party in a secure setup.
  • You now can add client sertificates as users. This could be done in the CLI on previous releases, but now it seems to  support some kind of user authentication as well. I have not tried out this feature yet, but I'm looking forward to do so.
  • The reboot/shutdown/reset swithces are now placed on top of the dashboard making it much easier to to these commonly used administrative tasks.
