[Fixed in 2.2.4] Fortigate extender controller SIM PIN

Hello,

We have a Fortigate firewall cluster using a fortiextender. We have configured the extender through fortigate firewall, like this:

Code: Select all

config extender-controller extender
    edit "FX201"
        set admin enable
        set ifname "4GBackup"
        set role primary
        set redial 1
        set quota-limit-mb 25600
        set wimax-auth-protocol ttls
        set sim-pin ENC bfCVUluKWEou5FF9D4u0nYl34+/pFrRZNO7kdD9SRYbO5mP0GZ1vNCITzdeuvA8CYDzo3vYs5k+e9jzB9F1wgRjt7NDBXczv+2/rMUPPBUZhilqiRe5Aked+JbGx9qZAQT5zdvWtLQ==
        set access-point-name "advancedinternet"
    next
end
As you can see the SIM pin is encoded just like passwords in the config. Currently this triggers a change notification. Can this be altered to also disregard the SIM pincode?

Regards,

Frans

Oh, and i fixed it by adding a disregard filter but it should be expected behaviour without extra filters..

Thank you for letting us know - I have added a built-in filter for this.
Starting with 2.2.4, this will be ignored out of the box.
