The FortiGate unit is shipped with a factory default configuration. The default 
configuration allows you to connect to and use the FortiGate web-based manager to 
configure the FortiGate unit onto the network. To configure the FortiGate unit onto the 
network you add an administrator password, change network interface IP addresses, 
add DNS server IP addresses, and configure basic routing, if required.

If you plan to operate the FortiGate unit in Transparent mode, you can switch to 
Transparent mode from the factory default configuration and then configure the 
FortiGate unit onto the network in Transparent mode.

Once the network configuration is complete, you can perform additional configuration 
tasks such as setting system time, configuring virus and attack definition updates, and 
registering the FortiGate 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.
