the basic network configuration listed in Tab le 2. This configuration allows you to

connect to the FortiGate unit web-based manager and establish the configuration

required to connect the FortiGate unit to the network. In Ta ble 2, HTTPS

administrative access means you can connect to the web-based manager using

HTTPS protocol through this interface. Ping administrative access means this

interface responds to ping requests.
