Appliance Configuration

1. Follow the instructions in the Guided Install section of the Administration Guide.

   These steps guide the user through the following tasks:

   • License key installation

   • Network settings configuration

   • Password creation

   • port2 interface configuration

2. Verify appliance with the Endpoint License Key has the correct entitlements.

   a. In the appliance with the Endpoint License Key installed, access the Administration UI using one of the following URLs:

   https://<FortiNAC IP Address>:8443/

   https://<FortiNAC Host Name>:8443/

   If “Processes are Down” is displayed, there may be a UUID or MAC address mismatch. See related KB article 192992.

   b. Locate the License Information widget in the Dashboard. If not available, click the Add Widget button at the top of Dashboard view to add.

   

   c. Review the entitlements in the License Information widget to ensure they are accurate.

   If entitlements are populated but not correct, review the entitlements in the customer portal (https://support.fortinet.com/) for that product. Contact Customer Service for assistance.
