Note: If you change the IP address of the interface you are connecting to, you must connect
through a web browser again using the new address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP
address of the interface. If the new IP address of the interface is on a different subnet, you may
have to change the IP address of your computer to the same subnet.
Note: If you use the setup wizard to configure internal server settings, the FortiGate unit adds
port forwarding virtual IPs and firewall policies for each server. For each server located on your
internal network the FortiGate unit adds a WAN1->Internal firewall policy.
