Note: If you change the IP address of the interface you are connecting to, you must connect through a web browser again using the new address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP address of the interface. If the new IP address of the interface is on a different subnet, you may have to change the IP address of your computer to the same subnet.

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 a WAN1->Internal firewall policy.

You are now finished the initial configuration of the FortiGate unit.

Connecting the FortiGate unit to the network(s)
