We are trying to implement DUO for our SSL VPN using Fortinet Firewall/Routers v 6.2.9 and we consistently receive the following error:

Has anyone run across this before and know what is causing the issue? I’m not finding much using google.

Take a look at How do I resolve “Certificate verification failed” and “SSL handshake failure” errors when using the Duo Authentication Proxy?.

If you work through this article and still can’t resolve the issue, contact Duo Support.

Hi, I have the same problem, did you solve it?

Hi @Carlos_Campos, did you try all the suggestions in that knowledge base article I linked in my earlier response?
