LDAP Configuration

Scenario:  Our aim is to configure the firewall such that all users should be authenticated through the LDAP server placed in our local network.

Step 1>

Configure the basic LAN and WAN settings on the Firewall.

Policy based routing (PBR)

Scenario: Our aim is to configure the firewall such that all the traffic from 192.168.1.52 will flow from WAN2 and the remaining will flow from WAN1.

Setup for ISP Failover

  

Scenario: We want to create a network in which if one ISP fails the traffic should go through the   second ISP without our network going down.

VIP (Mapped IP) Configuration

Our aim is to access the server remotely using Static IP mapped to local machine.

Service Based Access (Port Blocking)

Scenario: We have to configure firewall such that computers can access only limited number of service to the internet.

ISP Bandwidth Management (Traffic Shaping)

   

Scenario: Allocating particular amount of bandwidth for users in LAN

Step1>

We first need to configure the basic LAN and WAN settings on the firewall.

Local Firewall Authentication Based Access

     

Scenario: We have to configure firewall such that only user which get authenticate via local firewall authentication can access the internet.

Step1>

We first need to configure the basic LAN and WAN settings on the firewall.

Internet Access for specific IP Range

              

Scenario: We have to configure firewall such that only computer with specific IP can access the internet.

Initial Setup of the Fortinet firewall

By default the unit will be in factory settings.

(Note: Local computer should have the same IP range i.e. 192.168.1.x)

The Fortinet Firewall has a predefined IP which is 192.168.1.99 on its internal interface.

We have to connect the ISP cable to the either WAN1 or WAN2 port and the local computers should be connected to the any of the 6 ports on the internal side of the firewall.

Step 1

Then to access the GUI of the Fortinet Firewall we need to put the IP address https://192.168.1.99 in the browser of the explorer

 The above screen will come up.
