You can connect to the web-based manager and view the current system status of the
FortiGate unit. The status information that is displayed includes the system status, unit
information, system resources, and session log.
This chapter includes:
• Console access
• Status
• Session list
• Changing the FortiGate firmware
An alternative to the web-based manager discussed in this manual is text-based
Console Access, using the FortiGate command line interface (CLI). You can get
console access by selecting Console Access button in the upper right corner of the
web-based manager. The management computer must have Java version 1.3 or
higher installed.
For information on how to use the CLI, see the FortiGate CLI Reference Guide.
