FORTIGATE
Implementation of Fortigate Firewall (Basic Configuration)
1. Ask the Customer to Open the Box. 2. Before configuring the fortigate, ask the customer to provide the following details which
are mentioned in the attached document. And fill all the details. 3. Connect the power cable to the box and switch on the power plug. 4. Connect the Ethernet cable from Fortigate LAN port to system NIC 5. Give the system IP to 192.168.1.100. Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and Gateway is
192.168.1.99. 6. Ping the 192.168.1.99 from the system (if not pinging then check the connectivity). 7. Open the browser and type “https://192.168.1.99 8. Fortigate login page will open, type the username = “admin”, password = “by default
there is no password set”. 9. By default status page will open, Note down the serial no. of the fortigate.
Register the Fortigate
1. Open the browser and type www.fortinet.com 2. click on support and click the new registration button(present in right side panel) 3. Provided the information, mention in the datasheet. Click ok.
