set primary 293.44.75.21 set secondary 293.44.75.22

end

Reconnecting to the web-based manager

When the FortiWiFi unit has switched to Transparent mode, you can reconnect to the web-based manager using the new IP address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP address. If you connect to the management interface through a router, make sure you have added a default gateway for that route to the management IP default gateway field.

Connecting the FortiWiFi unit to your network

When you complete the initial configuration, you can connect the FortiWiFi unit between your internal network and the Internet and connect an additional network to the DMZ interface.

Note: You cannot use the modem interface as a redundant Internet connection when running in Transparent mode.

To connect the FortiWiFi unit running in Transparent mode:

1Connect the Internal interface to the hub or switch connected to your internal network.

2Connect the WAN1 interface to network segment connected to the external firewall or router.

Connect to the public switch or router provided by your Internet Service Provider.

3Connect the DMZ interface to another network.

Verify the connection

To verify the connection, try the following:

ping the FortiWiFi unit

browse to the web-based manager GUI

retrieve or send email from your email account
