sorry about my english but i have question
i have fortigate and i cant renew license so i will use opnsense , but i want to use it with fortigate , the only thing that fortigate will handle is authentications captive portal , and speed limit for users on my active directory (THIS OPTION NOT IN OPNSENSE) - and opnsense will do the rest
my current network diagram
IPS (2 lines ) - fortigate FW - Coreswitch (handle routing and vlans)- switches and APs - then users PCs and laptops
is that possible to make the opnsense works side by side with fortigate
any updates ?
your Fortigate will NOT act as a firewall.
I presume IPS will be your OPNsense which means that it WILL be your firewall. This means that it is possible to set this up.
edit:
you can download a Fortigate VM and set this up with a OPNsense VM to test out.
