Verifying the web-based manager configuration

To verify access settings, go to the interface you want to verify and select the edit
icon. The Administrative Access field should have check marks beside the
settings you chose in the preceeding steps.

Verify the connection

To verify your connection, try the following:
• browse to www.fortinet.com
• retrieve or send email from your email account
If you cannot browse to the web site or retrieve/send email from your account,
review the previous steps to ensure all information was entered correctly and try
again.
Basic settings, including interface IP addresses, netmasks, default gateways, and
the FortiGate operating mode can be configured using the front control buttons
and LCD on the FortiGate unit. Use the information you recorded in
page 35 to complete the following procedure. Start when the main menu setting is
displayed on the LCD.
Note: You cannot configure DHCP or PPPoE from the control buttons and LCD on the
FortiGate-200A. Instead, you can use the web-based manager or the CLI.

Use the up and down arrows to highlight the name of the interface to change and
press Enter.
Press Enter for IP address.
Use the up and down arrow keys to increase or decrease the value of each IP
address digit. Press Enter to move to the next digit. Press Esc to move to the
previous digit.

Use the down arrow to highlight Netmask.
Press Enter and change the Netmask.
After you set the last digit of the Netmask, press Enter.
Press Esc to return to the main menu setting.
