Introduction
recovered when performance returns to acceptable levels. Notifications will be sent automatically to administrators
when link or route problems occur.
Virtual Private Services (Tunnel Routing)
FortiWAN offers the most powerful and flexible multi-link VPN functionality in the industry. Inter-site Tunnels can be
created from fractional, full, multiple and fractions of multiple WAN links. Applications requiring large single-session
bandwidth such as VPN load balancing, video conferencing or WAN Optimization can use multiple links to build the
bandwidth needed. Multi-session traffic can share an appropriately-sized Tunnel. Tunnels have the same functionality
as single links, supporting Load Balancing, Fall-back, Failover and Health Detection within and between Tunnels.
Dynamic IP addresses and NAT pass through are supported for the VPL services deployments.
Virtual Servers (Server Load Balancing and High Availability)
FortiWAN supports simple server load balancing and server health detection for multiple servers offering the same
application. When service requests are distributed between servers, the servers that are slow or have failed are
avoided and/or recovered automatically. Performance parameters are controlled by the administrator.
Optimum Routing
FortiWAN continuously monitors the public Internet to select the shortest and fastest route for mission-critical
applications. Non-critical traffic can be routed away from the best links when prioritized traffic is present on the links or
traffic can be assigned permanently to different groups of WAN links.
Traffic Shaping (Bandwidth Management)
FortiWAN optimizes, guarantees performance or increase usable bandwidth for specified traffic by traffic classification
and rate limiting.
Firewall and Security
FortiWAN provides the stateful firewall, access control list and connection limit to protect FortiWAN unit, internal
network and services from malicious attacks.

This document describes how to set up your FortiWAN appliance. For first-time system deployment, the suggested
processes are:
Installation
l
Register your FortiWAN appliance before you start the installation. Please refer to the topic: [
] for further information.
l
Planning the network topology to introduce FortiWAN to current network. It requires a clear picture of your WAN link
types the ISP provides and how to use the available public IP addresses of a WAN link. The topic [
] provides the sub-topics that are necessary concepts for planning your network topology.
l
Topic [Web UI Overview] and its sub-topics provide the instructions to connect and log into the Web management
interface. System time and account/password resetting might be performed for FortiWAN while the first-time login,
please refer to topics [
