Fortinet 116 FortiWeb 5.0 Patch 6 Administration Guide
4. Click OK.
If you were connected to the web UI through this network interface, you are now
disconnected from it.
5. To access the web UI again, in your web browser, modify the URL t to match the new IP
address of the network interface. For example, if you configured the network interface with
the IP address 10.10.10.5, you would browse to: https://10.10.10.5
If the new IP address is on a different subnet than the previous IP address, and your
computer is directly connected to the FortiWeb appliance, you may also need to modify the
IP address and subnet of your computer to match the FortiWeb appliance’s new IP address.
PING Enable to allow:
•ICMP type 8 (ECHO_REQUEST)
UDP ports 33434 to 33534
for ping and traceroute to be received on this network interface.
When it receives an ECHO_REQUEST (“ping”), FortiWeb will reply with
ICMP type 0 (ECHO_RESPONSE or “pong”).
Note: Disabling PING only prevents FortiWeb from receiving ICMP
type 8 (ECHO_REQUEST) and traceroute-related UDP.
It does not disable FortiWeb CLI commands such as execute ping
or execute traceroute that send such traffic.
HTTP Enable to allow HTTP connections to the web UI through this network
interface. To configure the listening port number, see “Global web UI &
CLI settings” on page 51.
Caution: HTTP connections are not secure, and can be intercepted
by a third party. If possible, enable this option only for network
interfaces connected to a trusted private network, or directly to your
management computer. Failure to restrict administrative access
through this protocol could compromise the security of your FortiWeb
appliance.
SSH Enable to allow SSH connections to the CLI through this network
interface.
SNMP Enable to allow SNMP queries to this network interface, if queries
have been configured and the sender is a configured SNMP manager.
To configure the listening port number and configure queries and
traps, see “SNMP traps & queries” on page 580.
TELNET Enable to allow Telnet connections to the CLI through this network
interface.
Caution: Telnet connections are not secure, and can be intercepted
by a third party. If possible, enable this option only for network
interfaces connected to a trusted private network, or directly to your
management computer. Failure to restrict administrative access
through this protocol could compromise the security of your FortiWeb
appliance.
