Hello,

Thanks for the reply, and for investigating this.
As far as I can tell this has already been reported to KDE:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355079

Unfortunately using openfortivpn from the command line failed (it seems
the routing was messed up a bit). Using the Fortinet vendor Linux
client worked. If I get time I'll look into this later on.


Thanks,

John.

I think I may see the "issue".

For all the other VPNs there are packages such as...

plasma-nm-openconnect-5.8.1-0.1.fc24.x86_64
plasma-nm-openvpn-5.8.1-0.1.fc24.x86_64
plasma-nm-mobile-5.8.1-0.1.fc24.x86_64
plasma-nm-vpnc-5.8.1-0.1.fc24.x86_64
plasma-nm-pptp-5.8.1-0.1.fc24.x86_64
plasma-nm-strongswan-5.8.1-0.1.fc24.x86_64

There isn't a

plasma-nm-fortisslvpn

package.

I don't use that VPN type.

But I installed those packages and noted

1.  The VPN type does not appear in KDE as you've said.
2.  The VPN type does appear in GNOME.

So, I guess you should file a bugzilla.
