Configure a DNS server
A DNS server is a service that converts symbolic node names to IP addresses. A 
domain name server (DNS server) implements the protocol. In simple terms, it 
acts as a phone book for the Internet. A DNS server matches domain names with 
the computer IP address. This enables you to use readable locations, such as 
fortinet.com when browsing the Internet.

Setting up the FortiWiFi unit as a client
This section describes how to configure the FortiWiFi unit as a wireless client. As 
a client, the FortiWiFi connects to another access point to connect to the Internet. 
All other ports on the FortiWiFi are used to connect a remote network. In simple 
terms, it is a wireless client, like a user with a laptop. This type of setup enables a 
more remote area of a building, which for logistical reasons, cannot be wired to 
the main network.
For this setup to work you need to have configured an access point and have it up 
and running. For this example, the FortiWiFi unit will get its WLAN IP address 
using DHCP from the access point.
Setting up an access point involves the following steps:
Change to Client mode
By default, the FortiWiFi unit is in access point mode. The first step is to change to 
client mode.
To change to client mode
1
Go to System > Wireless > Settings.
2
Select Change for the Operation mode.
3
Select Client and select OK.
Note: If the access point is using MAC address filtering, ensure you add the FortiWiFi unit’s 
wireless MAC address to the accepted list. To obtain the MAC address, go to
System > Wireless > Settings.
