Factory default NAT/Route mode network configuration | Getting started |
|
|
If you are planning on operating the FortiGate unit in Transparent mode, you can switch to transparent mode from the factory default configuration and then configure the FortiGate unit onto your network in Transparent mode.
Once the network configuration is complete, you can perform additional configuration tasks such as setting system time, configuring virus and attack definition updates, and registering the FortiGate unit.
The factory default firewall configuration includes a single network address translation (NAT) policy that allows users on your internal network to connect to the external network, and stops users on the external network from connecting to the internal network. You can add more policies to provide more control of the network traffic passing through the FortiGate unit.
The factory default content profiles can be used to quickly apply different levels of antivirus protection, web content filtering, and email filtering to the network traffic controlled by firewall policies.
