Configuring the modem interfaceYou can connect a modem to the FortiGate unit and use it as either a backup interface
or standalone interface.
• In backup mode, the modem interface automatically takes over from a selected
ethernet interface when that ethernet interface is unavailable.
• In standalone mode, the modem interface is the connection from the FortiGate unit
to the Internet.
When connecting to the ISP, in either configuration, the FortiGate unit modem can
automatically dial up to three dialup accounts until the modem connects to an ISP.
