Factory default Transparent mode network configuration
In Transparent mode, the FortiGate unit has the default network configuration listed in
Table 4
.
Factory default firewall configuration
FortiGate firewall policies control how all traffic is processed by the FortiGate unit.
Until firewall policies are added, no traffic can be accepted by or pass through the
FortiGate unit. The factory default configuration contains one firewall policy that allows
all traffic originating on the internal network to access the Internet. No other traffic is
allowed through the FortiGate unit. To allow traffic through the FortiGate unit you can
add firewall policies. See the
FortiGate Administration Guide
for information about
adding firewall policies.
The following firewall configuration settings are included in the default firewall
configuration to make it easier to add firewall policies.
The factory default firewall configuration is the same in NAT/Route and Transparent
mode.
