FortiGate 200G QuickStart Guide : No WAN port

Hi

I've just recieved my FortiGate 200G.

I am following the quickstart guide.

It says to connect WAN port. But there is no WAN port

So I have connected a PC to the MGMT. I manage to acces the GUI.

But It wants to connect to FortiCloud. But no wan port plugged = no internet access.

So I tried console CLI

config system interface edit port1 set ip 192.168.99.99 255.255.255.0 command parse error before 'ip' Command fail. Return code -61

So I am a little lost.

Can you help ? Where can I find a Quickstart guide updated ?

Regards

Marc

On the 200F, port1 will be part of the "lan" VLAN switch.

You can remove it on the CLI with

config system virtual-switch
edit "lan"
config port

delete port1

end

After this you should be able to configure port1 independently.

hi,

wan/internet can be configured on any port, doesnt have to be called wan necessarly to use it.

before, set ip <> <> try set mode static then do the set ip <> <> and end.

config system interface edit port1 set mode static set ip 192.168.99.99 255.255.255.0 end

Thanks for your answer.

config system interface edit port1 set mode static command parse error before 'mode' Command fail. Return code -61

I am probably missing something :)

that's quite strange.

is the FGT maybe configured in transparent mode ?

can you do a show full system settings | grep opmode - to confirm/deny this theory ?
