Create a protection profile that enables virus 

scanning, file blocking, and blocking of oversize 

email for HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP. Add 

this protection profile to a default firewall policy.

Create a protection profile that enables virus 

scanning, for HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP 

(recommended). Add this protection profile to a 

default firewall policy.

Do not configure antivirus protection.

Select one of these security levels to protect your network from viruses.

Note:  If you change the IP address of the interface you are connecting to, you must connect 
through a web browser again using the new address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP 
address of the interface. If the new IP address of the interface is on a different subnet, you may 
have to change the IP address of your computer to the same subnet.

Note: If you use the setup wizard to configure internal server settings, the FortiGate unit adds 
port forwarding virtual IPs and firewall policies for each server. For each server located on the 
network connected to Port 1 the FortiGate unit adds a Port2->Port1 firewall policy.
