Configuring the FortiWiFi

Transparent mode installation

You do not have to reconnect to the web-based manager at this time. Once you select Apply, the changes are immediate, and you can go to the system dashboard to verify the FortiWiFi unit has changed to Transparent mode.

To configure DNS server settings

1Go to System > Network > Options.

2Enter the IP address of the primary DNS server.

3Enter the IP address of the secondary DNS server.

4Select Apply.

Using the Command line interface

As an alternative to the web-based manager, you can begin the initial configuration of the FortiWiFi unit using the command line interface (CLI). To connect to the CLI, see “Connecting to the CLI” on page 19. Use the information you gathered in Table 11 on page 40 to complete the following procedures.

To change to Transparent mode using the CLI

1Make sure you are logged into the CLI.

2Switch to Transparent mode. Enter:

config system settings

set opmode transparent

set manageip <address_ip> <netmask> set gateway <address_gateway>

end

After a few seconds, the following prompt appears:

Changing to TP mode

3When the login prompt appears, enter the following:

get system settings

The CLI displays the status of the FortiWiFi unit including the management IP address and netmask:

opmode

:

transparent

manageip

:

<address_ip><netmask>

You should verify the DNS server settings are correct. The DNS settings carry over from NAT/Route mode and may not be correct for your specific Transparent mode configuration. Use Table 11 on page 40 to configure the DNS server settings.

To verify the DNS server settings

Enter the following commands to verify the FortiWiFi unit’s DNS server settings:

show system dns
