Preparing to configure the FortiGate unit in NAT/Route mode
Use Table 12 on page 36 to gather the information you need to customize
NAT/Route mode settings.
You can configure the FortiGate unit in two ways:
• The web-based manager GUI is a complete interface for configuring most
settings. See “Using the web-based manager” on page 37.
• The command line interface (CLI) is a complete text-based interface for
configuring all settings. See “Using the command line interface” on page 39.
The method you choose depends on the complexity of the configuration, access
and equipment, and the type of interface you are most comfortable using.
