The FortiWiFi-50B provides WAN interfaces for Internet connections. You can
configure the Internet connection for both wired networks and the wireless
network through the WLAN interface.
You can provide secure Internet access for wireless clients by creating firewall
policies from the WLAN interface to the WAN1 or WAN2 interfaces.
The following example creates a policy from the wireless clients (WLAN interface)
to the Internet (WAN1 interface) using traffic shaping, firewall authentication and
the default Strict content policy.
