FortiGate-60R Installation and Configuration Guide
You can add more addresses to each interface to improve the control you have over
connections through the firewall. For more information about addresses, see
"Addresses" on page
148.
You can also add firewall policies that perform network address translation (NAT). To
use NAT to translate destination addresses, you must add virtual IPs. Virtual IPs map
addresses on one network to a translated address on another network. For more
information about Virtual IPs, see
Policies can also control connections based on the service or destination port number
of packets. The default policy accepts connections to using any service or destination
port number. The firewall is configured with over 40 predefined services. You can add
these services to a policy for more control over the services that can be used by
connections through the firewall. You can also add user-defined services. For more
information about services, see
Policies can also control connections based on the time of day or day of the week
when the firewall receives the connection. The default policy accepts connections at
any time. The firewall is configured with one schedule that accepts connections at any
time. You can add more schedules to control when policies are active. For more
information about schedules, see
Content profiles can be added to policies to apply antivirus protection, web filtering,
and email filtering to web, file transfer, and email services. The FortiGate unit includes
the following default content profiles:
•
Strict: to apply maximum content protection to HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP
content traffic.
•
Scan: to apply antivirus scanning to HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP content
traffic.
•
Web: to apply antivirus scanning and Web content blocking to HTTP content traffic.
•
Unfiltered: to allow oversized files to pass through the FortiGate unit without
scanned for viruses.
By default, the Scan content profile is selected for the default policy.
