Place the unit on a stable surface.
The FortiGate unit requires 1.5 inches (3.75 cm) clearance above and on each side to
allow for cooling.

Connect the FortiGate unit to a power outlet and to the internal and external networks.
Before beginning to configure the FortiGate unit, you need to plan how to integrate the unit into your network. Your configuration plan is dependent upon the operating mode that you select:
NAT/Route mode (the default) or Transparent mode.
NAT/Route mode (the default) or Transparent mode.
NAT/Route mode
In NAT/Route mode, each FortiGate unit is visible to the network that it is connected to. All
of its interfaces are on different subnets. Each interface connected to a network must be
configured with an IP address that is valid for that network.
You would typically use NAT/Route mode when the FortiGate unit is deployed as a gateway
between private and public networks. In its default NAT/Route mode configuration, the unit
of its interfaces are on different subnets. Each interface connected to a network must be
configured with an IP address that is valid for that network.
You would typically use NAT/Route mode when the FortiGate unit is deployed as a gateway
between private and public networks. In its default NAT/Route mode configuration, the unit
functions as a firewall. Firewall
policies control communications
through the FortiGate unit. No traf-
fic can pass through the
FortiGate unit until you add firewall
policies.
In NAT/Route mode, firewall poli-
cies can operate in NAT mode or
in Route mode. In NAT mode, the
FortiGate unit performs network
address translation before IP
packets are sent to the destina-
tion network. In Route mode, no
translation takes place.

You would typically use the FortiGate
unit in Transparent mode on a private
network behind an existing firewall or
behind a router. In its default Trans-
parent mode configuration, the unit
functions as a firewall. No traffic can
pass through the FortiGate unit until
you add firewall policies.
You can connect up to four network
segments to the FortiGate unit to
control traffic between these network
segments.

Quick configuration using the default settings
You can quickly set up your FortiGate unit for a home or small office using the web-based
manager and the default settings in NAT/Route mode.
All you need to do is set your network computers to use DHCP, access the web-based
manager, and configure the required settings for the WAN1 interface. You can also configure
DNS and a default route if needed. The FortiGate unit automatically assigns IP addresses to
up to 100 computers in the internal network.
