Reconnecting to the web-based manager
If you changed the IP address of the management interface while you were using the
setup wizard, you must reconnect to the web-based manager using the new IP
address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP address of the management
interface. Otherwise, you can reconnect to the web-based manager by browsing to
https://10.10.10.1. 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.
Using the command line interface
As an alternative to the web-based manager or setup wizard you can begin the initial
configuration of the FortiGate unit using the command line interface (CLI). To connect
to the CLI, see

information that you gathered in

procedures.
