FortiGate-800 Installation and Configuration Guide Version 2.50

Transparent mode installation

This chapter describes how to install your FortiGate unit in Transparent mode. If you want to install the FortiGate unit in NAT/Route mode, see “NAT/Route mode installation” on page 41. If you want to install two or more FortiGate units in HA mode, see “High availability” on page 73.

This chapter describes:

•Preparing to configure Transparent mode

•Using the setup wizard

•Using the front control buttons and LCD

•Using the command line interface

•Completing the configuration

•Connecting the FortiGate unit to your networks

•Transparent mode configuration examples

Preparing to configure Transparent mode

Use Table 16 to gather the information that you need to customize Transparent mode settings.

		The management IP address and netmask must be valid for the network
		from which you will manage the FortiGate unit. Add a default gateway if the
		FortiGate unit must connect to a router to reach the management
		computer.
