The event-log field advpnsc establishes whether the logged VPN tunnel is an ADVPN shortcut. The value advpnsc=1 identifies a shortcut, whereas advpnsc=0 identifies a non-shortcut event. The log for HUB1-VPN1_0 contains advpnsc=1, making the shortcut identification the directly supported conclusion. A different tunnel showing advpnsc=0 does not prove that its master tunnel cannot accept shortcuts. Application steering cannot be inferred from a VPN statistics event without the corresponding SD-WAN rule and session evidence. For ADVPN diagnostics, correlate vpntunnel, tunnelid, advpnsc and status messages. Reference: FortiOS 7.6 — ADVPN Shortcut Paths; Fortinet VPN log-field reference. FortiManager templates reduce repetitive work but must resolve to valid, device-specific configurations at installation time. Device assignments, metadata mappings, ADOM scope, policy-package interfaces and provisioning order should be inspected together rather than troubleshooting any one object in isolation. A successful management connection does not guarantee a successful configuration installation. Review the installation preview and task log, then validate the resulting device configuration and operational diagnostics. This separates a deployment-time validation failure from a live tunnel, routing or SLA fault.
