BYOD Users

Hello,

 

For Internal users which are already joined to Domain we can create policies with SSL Inspection and DPI. How about BYOD Users ?

 

How can we apply DPI SSL Inspection for BYOD users ?

You need to install the cert manually for them.

Hello,

 

Mike is correct that you would need to install the certificate manually for them if you are using a self-signed SSL Certificate (like the default FortiGate's one).

 

If you would like to do deep-inspection without installing a certificate manually, you need to get a properly signed SSL Certificate by an authorized Certificate Authority (CA). This will allow the BYOD devices to build a proper chain of trust to the Root CA. Once you get a properly signed SSL Certificate, import the private key and the Certificate to the FortiGate. You would not need to manually install the certificate in any BYOD devices this way.
