Factory defaults
The FortiWiFi unit ships with a factory default configuration. The default
configuration allows you to connect to and use the FortiWiFi web-based manager
to configure the FortiWiFi unit onto the network. To configure the FortiWiFi unit
onto the network you add an administrator password, change network interface IP
addresses, add DNS server IP addresses, and, if required, configure basic
routing.
If you plan to operate the FortiWiFi unit in Transparent mode, you can switch to
Transparent mode from the factory default configuration and then configure the
FortiWiFi unit onto the network in Transparent mode.
Once you complete the network configuration, you can perform additional
configuration tasks such as setting system time, configuring virus and attack
definition updates, and registering the FortiWiFi unit.
The factory default firewall configuration includes a single network address
translation (NAT) policy that allows users on your internal network to connect to
the external network, and stops users on the external network from connecting to
the internal network. You can add more firewall policies to provide more control of
the network traffic passing through the FortiWiFi unit.
The factory default protection profiles can be used to apply different levels of
antivirus protection, web content filtering, spam filtering, and IPS to the network
traffic that is controlled by firewall policies.
