FortiWLC appliances should be installed in a restricted access location
such as a locked data center to ensure their physical security, which is
fundamental to your network security. Mount the appliance in any standard
19 inch (48.3cm) rack with the rack-mount brackets.
In a rack, a FortiWLC-500D occupies 1U (1.77in/4.45 cm).
• 2-post rack: Attach the rack-mount brackets to the middle of each
side of appliance so that its weight is distributed evenly.
• 4-post rack: Attach the rack-mount brackets to the front of each side
of the appliance with anges facing outwards, towards the notches in
the rack.

Installing SFP transceivers
If not already installed, install the SFP/SFP+ transceivers that will be used
to connect your appliance to the network.
Caution: Do not install or remove SFP transceivers while ber-optic cables
are still attached. This can cause damage to the cables, cable connectors,
and optical interfaces. It may also prevent the transceiver from latching
correctly into the socket.
Note: Installing and removing SFP transceivers can shorten their life. Do
not install or remove transceivers more than is necessary.
To install the SFP transceivers
1. On the appliance’s front panel, remove the caps from SFP cage sockets.
2. Position the SFP transceiver in front of the cage socket so that the
extraction lever is level with the socket latch.
Note: SFP cage socket orientation may vary. Ensure that the SFP
transceiver module is correctly oriented.
3. Holding the sides of the SFP transceiver, gently slide it into the cage
socket.
Caution: Do not force SFP transceivers into cage sockets. Force can
cause damage. If the transceiver does not easily slide in and click into
place, it may not be aligned correctly or may be upside down. If this
happens, remove the SFP transceiver, realign or rotate it, and try again.
3
4. Press the transceiver rmly into the cage socket with your thumb until it
clicks, indicating that it is latched.
5. To verify that the transceiver is latched, grasp its sides and try to pull it out
without lowering the extraction lever.
If you can remove the transceiver, it was not latched correctly, and could
become accidentally dislodged. Try again.
To remove the SFP transceivers
1. Disconnect the ber optic cable from the transceiver connector.
2. To prevent dust from entering the optical bores, insert clean plugs.
3. To eject the transceiver, pull the extraction lever out and down.
Tip: Instead of using your nger, try a small at-head screwdriver.
4. Hold the sides of the transceiver and carefully pull it from the cage socket.
5. Replace the cap on the SFP cage socket.
6. Put the removed SFP transceiver into an anti-static bag.
4
Connecting to FortiWLC
If the appliance has a redundant power supply, connect each power cable
to a dierent power source.
You can congure FortiWLC for your network through a connection to
command line interface (CLI).
IMPORTANT• FortiWLC-500D is supported ONLY from System
Director 8.0-SR1 and later.
• SFP support is not available in the 8.0-SR1
release.
Connect FortiWLC only to your computer until you nish setup. (If you
place FortiWLC in your network before FortiWLC is set up, trac could
be interrupted until setup is complete.) Detailed instructions are in the
System Director User Guide.
One typical, basic network topology is shown below.
5
To connect to the CLI via serial console
Requires: Terminal emulator such as PuTTY, TeraTerm, or a terminal server
1. Using the console cable, connect the appliance console port to your
terminal server or computer.
2. On your computer or terminal server, start the terminal emulator.
Usethesesettings:
• Baud rate: 115200
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None
3. Press Enter on your keyboard to connect to the CLI.
6
Shutting down
Always properly shut down the FortiWLC
appliance’s operating system before unplugging
the appliance. This causes it to nish writing
buered data, and to slow and park the
harddisks.
Do not unplug the FortiWLC appliance before
halting the operating system. Failure to shut
down correctly could cause dataloss and
hardware problems.
To power o the appliance via the CLI, use the powero controller CLI
command before unplugging the power.
The command gracefully brings the controller down to a state where power
can safely be removed.

Replacing a PSU
The FortiWLC-500D chassis’ rear panel includes two redundant hot swappable
PSUs. At least one PSU must be connected to power; the other power supply
is a backup for 1+1 redundancy.
If the PSU is not operating (dentied from the LED status specied in this
document) even with adequate power supply, then the PSU has failed and
should be replaced. You can hot swap a PSU without powering down the
controller as long as one PSU is connected to power and operating normally.
If the power source is connected to one PSU then a beep sound is emitted. If
the power source is connected to both the PSUs then the beep sound is not
emitted.
Caution: Attach an ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a
bare metal surface on the chassis or frame.
1. Turn o the power at its source and remove the power cord.
2. Press the release latch towards the handle and slide the PSU unit out of
the chassis.
3. Insert the new replacement PSU into the chassis and gently slide it in
until it locks into place.
4. Connect the power cord to the PSU and to the power supply. Turn on the
power to the PSU.
5. Verify that the PSU status LED is solid green meaning that the PSU is
powered up and operating normally.

15. Open Source Software.
Fortinet’s products may include software modules that are licensed (or sublicensed) to the user under the GNU General Public License, Version 2,
of June 1991 (“GPL”) or GNU Lesser General Public License, Version 2.1, of February 1999 (“LGPL”) or other open source software licenses which,
among other rights, permit the user touse, copy, modify and redistribute modules, or portions thereof, and may also require attribution disclosures
and access to the source code (“Open Source Software”). The GPL requires that for any Open Source Software covered under the GPL, which is
18
distributed to someone in an executable binary format, that the source code also be made available to those users. For any Open Source Software
covered under the GPL, the source code is made available on this CD or download package. If any Open Source Software licenses require that
Fortinet provide rights to use, copy or modify a Open Source Software program that are broader than the rights granted in this agreement, then
such rights shall take precedence over the rights and restrictions herein. Fortinet will provide, for a charge reecting our standard distribution
costs, the complete machine-readable copy of the modied software modules. To obtain a complete machine-readable copy, please send your
written request, along with a check in the amount of US $25.00, to General Public License Source Code Request, Fortinet, Inc., 899 Kifer Rd,
Sunnyvale, CA 94086 USA. In order to receive the modied software modules, you must also include the following information: (a) Name, (b)
Address, (c) Telephone number, (d) E-mail Address, (e) Product purchased (if applicable), (f) Product Serial Number (if applicable). All open source
software modules are licensed free of charge. There is no warranty for these modules, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The copyright
holders provide these software modules “AS-IS” without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied. In no event will the copyright holder
for the open source software be liable to you for damages, including any special, incidental or consequential damages arising out of the use or
inability to use the software modules, even if such holder has been advised of the possibility of such damages. A full copy of this license, including
additional open source software license disclosures and third party license disclosures applicable to certain Fortinet products, may obtained by
contacting Fortinet’s Legal Department at legal@fortinet.com.
This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the
terms of this General Public License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means
either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or
with modications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modication”.)
Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modication are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the
Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of
having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously
and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this
License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program. You may
charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option oer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute
such modications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modied les to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the les and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to
be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modied program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in
the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or
else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a
copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the
Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modied work as a whole. If identiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be
reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you
distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each
and every part regardless of who wrote it.. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by
you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program. In addition, mere
aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections
1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections1 and 2
above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written oer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1
and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the oer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for
noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an oer, in accord with Subsection
b above.)
Source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modications to it. For an executable work, complete source code
means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface denition les, plus the scripts used to control compilation
and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable
runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable. If distribution of executable or object code is made by oering access to copy
from a designated place, then oering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code,
even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to
copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who
have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute
the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing
the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
Version 2, June 1991
19
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original
licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the
recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions
are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from
the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free
redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this
License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and
the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims;
this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license
practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent
application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a
licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original
copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so
that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in
the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may dier in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing
version number. If the Program species a version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not
specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are dierent, write to the author to ask
for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make
exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PR OVIDE THE PROGRAM
“AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS
WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY
WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PART Y HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES.
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other
authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called “this License”). Each licensee is
addressed as “you”.
A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use
some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the Library”
means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim
or with modications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term
“modication”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the
source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface denition les, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation
of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modication are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a
program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library
(independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that
uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that
refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library. You may charge a fee for the
physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option oer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such
modications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modied work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the les modied to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the les and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modied Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other
than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith eort to ensure that, in the event an application does
not supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
