Followed this guide:

https://cookbook.fortinet.com/create-routing-table-associate-subnets/

I have EC2 windows instance, also have EC2 FortiGate-FortiGate VM64-AWSONDEMAND . Fortigate has 2 NIC: 192.168.10.5 (external one) 192.168.30.0 (internal)

In VPC has 2 route tables:

Public and internal

Public route table:

destination:0.0.0.0

target: internet gateway

included subnet:192.168.10.0

Behind FortiGate firewall I have windows instance in 192.168.30.0/24 subnet

Private route table:

destination:0.0.0.0

target: "internal" FortiGate firewall interface

included subnet:192.168.30.0

For all devices on "internal" network default route will be the internal interface of Fortigate FW

Source/destination check disabled on an internal FortiGate interface

I created proxy policy and proxy rule, specified FortiGate internal IP address as a proxy in the browser. I can browse the internet from windows instance, unable to ping 8.8.8.8

I created IPV4 rule to allow all traffic from LAN (192.168.30.0) to any address

static route:

Problem:

If I remove proxy policy and proxy address from the browser I can't search the internet, unable to ping 8.8.8.8

I CAN ping FortiGate internal and external interfaces

but traffic won't pass outside windows machine (192.168.30.49)

192.168.30.1 is AWS gateway

  • I am working on a similar setup to yours. If you don't mind helping me out, what do your proxy policies and proxy rules look like? Also, what IPs did you set for your WAN and LAN? – MattRudolph Apr 5 '19 at 4:15

It was metric !, was same for fortigate and windows (10) as you can see from picture above, just reduced default metric in fortigate for static route and all started working
