Using the
Command Line Interface
1. Use the serial cable to connect the FortiGate Console port to the management computer serial port.
2. Start a terminal emulation program (HyperTerminal) on the management computer. Use these settings:
Baud Rate (bps) 9600, Data bits 8, Parity None, Stop bits 1, and Flow Control None.

You can connect the management computer directly to the FortiGate-60M internal interface
4-port switch.
Note:
If you change the internal interface IP address (NAT/Route mode) or management IP address (Transparent mode), you must use this address to reconnect to the web-based manager and Setup Wizard.
You might also have to change the IP address of the management computer to be on the same subnet as the new IP address.

Web-based manager and Setup Wizard
Using the Setup Wizard you can add basic settings by stepping through the wizard
pages and filling in the information required.
The FortiGate web-based manager is an easy to use management tool. Use it to
configure the administrator password, interface addresses, the default gateway
address, and the DNS server addresses.
Requirements:
An Ethernet connection between the FortiGate-60M and a
management computer running Internet Explorer version 6.0 or higher.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
The CLI is a full-featured management tool.
Use it to configure the administrator password, the interface addresses, the default
gateway address, and the DNS server addresses. To configure advanced settings, see
the Documentation CD-ROM.
Requirements:
An RJ-45-serial connection between the FortiGate-60M and
management computer and a terminal emulation application (HyperTerminal for
Windows) on the management computer.
Choose among two different tools to configure the FortiGate-60M.
