Front-End 2FA Authentication System for Fortinet Firewalls

The Perfect Balance of Scalability, Security, and Control

2FA Authentication System

Protect your network infrastructure and stop zero-day vulnerabilities with Xaccel’s comprehensive Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) captive portal system designed specifically for Fortinet Firewalls.

The Challenge

The absolute best defence against hacking is a closed network approach—leaving nothing publicly exposed and forcing end users to utilise VPN for access. While effective, this method presents significant challenges:

Bypass ISP Blocking

Solve VPN reliability issues caused by restrictive providers

Port 1003 Workarounds

Ensure captive portal redirection works even when hotels block standard Fortinet ports.

Cost-Efficient Connectivity

Avoid predatory hotel fees that charge extra for VPN access.

Uninterrupted Workflow

Reduce user frustration by eliminating common connection drops.

Our Solution

Xaccel’s hosted service provides an innovative alternative approach that bypasses these traditional limitations. Our system leverages standard HTTPS ports accessible through both IPv4 and IPv6 networks, eliminating the need for redirection and ensuring consistent, reliable access.

How It Works

Users access your systems through a secure 2FA authentication login URL. Upon successful authentication, our system automatically adds the end user’s source IP address to your Fortinet firewall. You maintain complete control over user access and expiration times—our software automatically removes IP addresses as they expire.

This solution leverages Fortinet’s External Connectors feature to push IP addresses into your firewall in real-time, enabling secure access without compromising security.

Stop attacks before they reach your network with built-in Bot protection, Brute Force prevention, and optional Geo-blocking to filter traffic by geographic location.

Technical Advantages

Our infrastructure is engineered for high-performance connectivity and enterprise-grade security. By leveraging advanced network protocols and isolated server environments, we provide a robust foundation that ensures reliable access and seamless scalability for your business operations.

Network Compatibility

The system utilizes standard HTTPS ports to effectively bypass ISP and firewall blocking issues. It provides full dual-stack compatibility for both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols to ensure modern connectivity. By removing the need for redirection, the architecture eliminates the common limitations associated with captive portals.

Scalability & Reliability

Each client is provided with a dedicated virtual server to maintain a completely isolated and secure environment. This is supported by a Private VLAN that prevents any cross-customer network interference. The platform ensures high availability and consistent access without any reliance on external VPN dependencies.
