FortiMail VM console access

To enable Web-based Manager access to the FortiMail VM you must configure the port1 IP address and network mask of the FortiMail VM.

To configure the port1 IP address and netmask:
  1. In the list of virtual machines, select the FortiMail VM that you deployed, right-click, and select Connect from the menu.
  2. The Console window appears

  3. At the FortiMail VM login prompt enter the user name admin and password. The default password is no password.
  4. To configure the port1 IP address and netmask, enter the following CLI commands:
  5. config system interface

    edit port1

    set ip <ip-address-netmask>

    end

Tooltip

The port management interface should match the first network adapter and virtual switch that you have configured in the Microsoft Hyper-V Server virtual machine settings.

Caution

The Customer Service & Support portal currently does not support IPv6 for FortiMail VM license validation. You must specify an IPv4 address in both the support portal and the port management interface.
