Firewall schedules control when policies are in effect. You can create one-time schedules
or recurring schedules. One-time schedules are in effect only once for the period of time
specified in the schedule. Recurring schedules are in effect repeatedly at specified times
of specified days of the week.
If you enable virtual domains (VDOMs) on the FortiGate unit, you must configure firewall
schedules separately for each virtual domain. For more information, see
domains" on page
159.

You can create a recurring schedule that activates a policy during a specified period of
time. For example, you might prevent game playing during office hours by creating a
recurring schedule that covers office hours.
Note: If a recurring schedule has a stop time that is earlier than the start time, the schedule
will take effect at the start time but end at the stop time on the next day. You can use this
technique to create recurring schedules that run from one day to the next. For example, to
prevent game playing except at lunchtime, you might set the start time for a recurring
schedule at 1:00 p.m. and the stop time at 12:00 noon. To create a recurring schedule that
runs for 24 hours, set the start and stop times to 00.
To view the recurring schedule list, go to Firewall > Schedule > Recurring.
