Configuring NAT/Route mode
Use Table 6 to gather the information you need to customize NAT/Route mode
settings for the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC security system. You can use one table
for each board to configure.
Using the web-based manager to configure NAT/Route mode
1 Connect port1 of the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board to the same hub or switch
as the computer you will use to configure the FortiGate board.
2 Configure the management computer to be on the same subnet as the port1
interface of the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board. To do this, change the IP
address of the management computer to 192.168.1.2 and the netmask to
255.255.255.0.
3 To access the FortiGate web-based manager, start Internet Explorer and browse
to https://192.168.1.99 (remember to include the “s” in https://).
