CASI feature not visible in proxy-based inspection mode

Hi guys,

 

When trying to activate the CASI feature I noticed it is not visible under System > Feature Visibility. My Fortigate is working in proxy-based mode, but the NSE4 course says it is OK:

 

 

However, the Fortinet Help says the following:

 

Unfortunately CASI does not work when using Proxy-based profiles for AV or Web filtering for example. Make sure to only use Flow-based profiles in combination with CASI on a specific policy.

http://help.fortinet.com/fos50hlp/54/Content/FortiOS/fortigate-whats-new-54/Top_CASI.htm

 

But I am not sure if that means CASI doesn't work with proxy-based mode at all or if it can be used within a profile without proxy profile.

 

What do you think about this? By the way, I am running firmware v5.6.2.

 

Regards,

Julián

Hi,

 

the CASI "feature" has been removed from 5.6.

You can get the same functionality using the application control profiles.

Hi Bommi,

 

Within the Application Control profile I can see a warning which says "97 Cloud Applications require deep inspection", which matches with NSE4 when says "When applying a CASI profile to a firewall policy, enable deep inspection in the firewall policy as CASI is basically doing deep inspection of cloud applications."

 

 

 

How can I know what applications requiere deep inspection? Because I am not applying deep inspection and my application controls works fine.

Julián
