New FortiGate 60F- Assigns me IP but http://192.168.1.99 times out
Hello!
I just purchased a FortiGate 60F. As a network engineer I'm most used Cisco and MikroTik- this is my first Fortinet router.
I pulled it out of the box, plugged in Power and WAN1, and verified the unit has power and is operational. I have also registered the router in my Fortinet portal.
My laptop is connected directly to to Port 1 and is being assigned DHCP IP's of 192.168.1.110 and a default gateway of 192.168.1.99. However, all attempts to open http://192.168.1.99 or https://192.168.1.99 via Chrome, Edge and Firefox time out.
Nothing else is connected to my laptop, and I have also tried using a desktop, with the same results. What's my next best step?
Thanks so much!!
