Setting up management connections

When your FortiGate-7000 first starts up, the MGMT1 to MGMT4 interfaces of both of the FIMs are part of a static 802.3 aggregate interface with a default IP address of 192.168.1.99. On the GUI or CLI the 802.3 aggregate interface is named mgmt.

Example mgmt interface configuration

Note For security reasons you should add a password to the admin account before connecting the chassis to your network.
