Factory default settings
The FortiGate-5001FA2 unit ships with a factory default configuration. The default
configuration allows you to connect to and use the FortiGate-5001FA2 web-based
manager to configure the FortiGate-5001FA2 board onto the network. To
configure the FortiGate-5001FA2 board onto the network you add an administrator
password, change the network interface IP addresses, add DNS server IP
addresses, and, if required, configure basic routing.
Configuring NAT/Route mode
Use Table 6 to gather the information you need to customize NAT/Route mode
