The FortiGate unit comes preconfigured with four protection profiles.
Strict
To apply maximum protection to HTTP, FTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP traffic.
You may not use the strict protection profile under normal circumstances but
it is available if you have problems with viruses and require maximum
screening.
Scan
To apply antivirus scanning and file quarantining to HTTP, FTP, IMAP,
POP3, and SMTP content traffic.
Web
To apply antivirus scanning and web content blocking to HTTP content
traffic. You can add this protection profile to firewall policies that control
HTTP traffic.
Unfiltered
To apply no scanning, blocking or IPS. Use if you do not want to apply
content protection to content traffic. You can add this protection profile to
firewall policies for connections between highly trusted or highly secure
networks where content does not need to be protected.
You can revert to factory default settings and start over again if you mistakenly
change a network setting and are unable to recover from it.
Caution: This procedure deletes all changes you have made to the FortiGate configuration
and reverses the system to its original configuration, including resetting interface
addresses.
