Setting up WiFi with a FortiAP

This examples shows how to set up a WiFi network with a FortiGate managing a FortiAP in Tunnel mode.

You can configure a FortiAP unit in either Tunnel mode (default) or Bridge mode. FortiAP in Tunnel mode uses a wireless-only subnet for wireless traffic. In Bridge mode, the Ethernet and WiFi interfaces are connected (or bridged) allowing wired and wireless networks to be on the same subnet.

For information on using a FortiAP in Bridge mode, see Setting up a WiFi Bridge with a FortiAP.
