show system dns
The above CLI command should give you the following DNS server setting
information:
config system dns
set primary 293.44.75.21
set secondary 293.44.75.22
set fwdintf internal
end

config system dns
set primary <address_ip>
set secondary <address_ip>
end

Reconnecting to the web-based manager

When the FortiGate unit has switched to Transparent mode, you can reconnect to
the web-based manager using the new IP address. Browse to https:// followed by
the new IP address. If you connect to the management interface through a router,
make sure that you have added a default gateway for that router to the
management IP default gateway field.
