If you are running the FortiGate unit in NAT/Route mode, your networks must be
configured to route all Internet traffic to the IP address of the FortiGate interface to
which they are connected.
Make sure that the connected FortiGate unit is functioning properly by connecting to
the Internet from a computer on your internal network. You should be able to connect
to any Internet address.
