Console Port

Hello

You need a serial cable connected to a serial port on notebook side. Today's laptop's generally don't have rs232 port, so you can use a USB to rs232 cable. This is usually provided with FG200F and higher. Or you can buy it everywhere.

You need to initiate a serial connection of 9600 baud rate.

Adding further to what @AEK  said :

You connect the RJ45 on the FortiGate console port and USB on the Laptop/PC . 

Open device manager and monitor which COM port will show there and modify it on the putty connection settings. 

Here you have more information:

You cannot do that, but as a workaround that I have used in the past with devices that don't have a dedicated managed port, you can do the following: If you have a free port on the FGT, you can dedicate it as "OOBM", configure a small unused subnet, assign an IP, and enable only SSH.

In case you need access when you are physically near the FGT, just connect your laptop directly to that port set the IP 10.255.255.2 255.255.255.252 and access the FGT with a SSH client like putty:

Thanx for the answers

I do not want use any other port on Notebook as the Ethernet Port. Becaus I havn't any console Cables. So I made a own RolloverCable with RJ45 on both sides and dont want use any USB Ports on Notebook. I need in my cause a serial Link from Notebook Ethernet to Forti Ethernet (console Port)
