    Exercise 1: Configuring FortiGate System

    Settings
    In this exercise, you will review the Local-FortiGate system settings and make changes to
    complete setting up FortiGate on your network. You will enable the internal network DHCP
    server to allow hosts to receive the IP address when connecting to Local-FortiGate.

    Some of the settings in this lab have been preconfigured and are not the factory default
    settings of FortiGate.

    Review Local-FortiGate Network Settings


    You will review the port3 network interface on Local-FortiGate and you will also review the
    static routes.

    To review the port3 network interface

    1. Connect to the Local-FortiGate GUI, and then log in with the username admin and
    password password.

    2. Click Network > Interfaces.

    3. Click port3, and then click Edit.

    You can double-click an object on the FortiGate GUI to view or edit the content of the
    object.

    4. In the Edit Interface window, review the information available on the right.
    FortiGate displays its host name and status without the need to navigate away from your
    current work.

    5. In the Role field, select WAN.

    Stop and think!

    Why do some of the settings appear or disappear when the role of an interface changes?

    Each role reflects the appropriate settings required to configure the interface.The Undefined role
    displays all of the settings you can configure on an interface.
    The purpose of choosing WAN as the role of the interface is to see that when this
    interface is connected to an external connection, you may need to disable some settings
    to configure the DHCP server setting.

    6. In the Estimated bandwidth fields, review the WAN utilization values.

    When the role of the interface is set to WAN, you can set the downstream and upstream
    maximum bandwidth.

    7. Click Cancel to clear any changes made.

    To review the static default gateway on Local-FortiGate

    1. Continuing on the Local-FortiGate GUI, click Network > Static Routes.

    2. Click the static route entry, and then click Edit.

    3. Expand the Advanced Options section.

    You can set the priority value of the static route. When two routes have an equal distance,
    the route with a lower priority number takes precedence

    4. Click Cancel to clear any changes made.

    Enable the DHCP Server on Local-FortiGate


    You will enable the DHCP server on port3.

    To enable the DHCP server on port3

    1. Continuing on the Local-FortiGate GUI, click Network > Interfaces.

    2. Click port3, and then click Edit.

    3. In the Role field, select LAN.


    4. Enable DHCP Server.

    Notice in the LAN role, the DHCP server appears on the GUI, unlike when the role is
    set to WAN.

    5. In the Address range field, type 10.0.1.1-10.0.1.250.

    6. Click OK to save the changes.
