Connect the FortiGate unit to a power outlet and to the internal and external networks.
Place the unit on a stable surface. It requires 1.5 inches (3.75 cm) clearance above and
•
on each side to allow for cooling.
Plug in power cable to the unit before connecting power.

and running.
Before beginning to congure the FortiGate unit, you need to plan how to integrate the unit into your network. Your conguration plan depends on the operating mode you select: NAT/Route
mode (the default) or Transparent mode.
NAT/Route mode
In NAT/Route mode, each FortiGate unit is visible to the network that it is connected to. All
of its interfaces are on
different subnets. Each
interface that is connected
to a network must be
congured with an IP address that is valid for that
network.
You would typically use
NAT/Route mode when
the FortiGate unit is
deployed as a gateway
between private and public
networks. In its default
NAT/Route mode congu-
Transparent mode
In Transparent mode, the FortiGate unit is invisible to the network. All of its interfaces are on
the same subnet. You only have to congure a management IP address so that you can make
conguration changes.
You would typically use the
FortiGate unit in Transparent
mode on a private network
behind an existing rewall or
behind a router. In its default
Transparent mode conguration,
the unit functions as a rewall.
No trafc can pass through the
FortiGate unit until you add
rewall policies.
You can connect up to four network segments to the FortiGate unit to control trafc between
these network segments.
ration, the unit functions as a rewall. Firewall policies control communications through the
FortiGate unit. No
trafc can pass through the FortiGate unit until you add rewall policies. In NAT/Route mode,
rewall policies can operate in NAT mode or in Route mode. In NAT mode, the FortiGate unit
performs network address translation before IP packets are sent to the destination network.
In Route mode, no translation takes place.
Refer to the Documentation CD-ROM for information on how to control trafc, and how to congure HA, antivirus protection, FortiGuard, Web content ltering, Spam ltering,
intrusion prevention (IPS), and virtual private networking (VPN).
Web-based manager
The FortiGate web-based manager is an easy to use management tool. Use it to congure
the administrator password, the interface and default gateway addresses, and the DNS
server addresses.
Requirements:
•
•
An Ethernet connection between the FortiGate unit and management computer.
Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher on the management computer.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
The CLI is a full-featured management tool. Use it to congure the administrator password,
the interface addresses, the default gateway address, and the DNS server addresses. To
congure advanced settings, see the Documentation CD-ROM.
Requirements:
The DB-9 serial connection between the FortiGate unit and management computer.
•
A terminal emulation application (HyperTerminal for Windows) on the management
•
computer.
