Connecting the FortiGate Voice unit

The following procedure describes how to connect the FortiGate Voice unit to the Internet,
the branch office internal network, and the PSTN (supported by some FortiGate Voice
models).

To connect the FortiGate Voice unit

1 Use an Ethernet cable to connect the FortiGate Voice wan1 interface to the device that

connects the branch office to the Internet.
The device could be a cable or DSL modem or other device depending on how the
Branch Office connects to the Internet.

2 Use Ethernet cables to connect the PCs and FortiFones on the internal network to the

FortiGate Voice internal interface switch connectors.
You can connect up to 8 PCs and FortiFones directly to the FortiGate Voice Internal
interface switch connectors. To connect more devices, add Ethernet switches to your
network as required.

office PSTN phone line supplied by your local telephone service provider.
