Enabling Saml for SSLVPN Using Entra but Watchguard always sends port 4100 in the URL's
I am trying to use Entra for our SSL VPN but the URL settings always use port 4100. When going to https://{Firewall IP or FQDM}/auth/saml all the urls listed include port 4100. I have no idea how to remove port :4100. This prevents the VPN authentication from working.
