Using the setup wizard

From the web-based manager, you can use the setup wizard to create the initial configuration of your FortiGate unit. To connect to the web-based manager, see “Connecting to the web-based manager” on page 19.

Starting the setup wizard

1Select Easy Setup Wizard (the middle button in the upper-right corner of the web-based manager).

2Use the information that you gathered in Table 12 on page 34 to fill in the wizard fields. Select the Next button to step through the wizard pages.

3Confirm your configuration settings and then select Finish and Close.

Note: If you use the setup wizard to configure internal server settings, the FortiGate unit adds port forwarding virtual IPs and firewall policies for each server. For each server located on your internal network the FortiGate unit adds an Ext->Int policy.

Reconnecting to the web-based manager

If you used the setup wizard to change the IP address of the internal interface, you must reconnect to the web-based manager using a new IP address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP address of the internal interface. Otherwise, you can reconnect to the web-based manager by browsing to https://192.168.1.99.

You have now completed the initial configuration of your FortiGate unit, and you can proceed to “Connecting the FortiGate unit to your networks” on page 37.
