The FortiGate-5000 module ships with a factory default configuration. The default
configuration allows you to connect to and use the FortiGate web-based manager to
configure the FortiGate-5000 module onto the network. To configure the FortiGate-
5000 module onto the network you add an administrator password, change network
interface IP addresses, add DNS server IP addresses, and configure basic routing, if
required.
If you plan to operate the FortiGate-5000 module in Transparent mode, you can
switch to Transparent mode from the factory default configuration and then configure
the FortiGate-5000 module onto the network in Transparent mode.
Once the network configuration is complete, you can perform additional configuration
tasks such as setting system time, configuring virus and attack definition updates, and
registering the FortiGate-5000 module.
The factory default protection profiles can be used to apply different levels of antivirus
protection, web content filtering, spam filtering, and IPS to the network traffic that is
controlled by firewall policies.
