3Connect the internal network to the FortiBridge-1000F INT 1 interface.

4Connect the FortiBridge-1000F EXT 1 interface to the router.

Connecting to the command line interface (CLI)

You configure and manage the FortiBridge unit from the FortiBridge command line

interface (CLI). You can use a direct console connection, SSH, or Telnet to

connect to the FortiBridge CLI. This section describes how to connect directly to

the FortiBridge console and how to connect to the FortiBridge CLI across an

ethernet network using Telnet. See also “Connecting to the FortiBridge CLI using

Telnet” on page26 for more information about connecting to the FortiBridge CLI.

Connecting to the FortiBridge console

You require:

• A computer with an available communications port,

• An RJ-45 to DB-9 serial cable,

• Terminal emulation software such as HyperTerminal for Windows.

To connect to the FortiBridge console for the first time

1Connect the FortiBridge console port to the available communications port on

your computer.

2Make sure the FortiBridge unit is powered on.

3Start HyperTerminal, enter a name for the connection, and select OK.

4Configure HyperTerminal to connect directly to the communications port on the

computer to which you have connected the FortiBridge console port.

5Select OK.

6Select the following port settings and select OK.

7Press the escape key (Esc) to connect to the FortiBridge CLI.

A prompt similar to the following appears (shown for the FortiBridge-1000):

FortiBridge-1000 login:

8Type a valid administrator name and press Enter.

The default administrator account is admin.

Note: The following procedure describes how to connect to the FortiBridge CLI using

Windows HyperTerminal software. You can use any terminal emulation software.
