IP Conguration
3
After you have connected the FortiExtender network interfaces, the device automatically
attempts to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. If you do not use DHCP, you can
congure a static IP address.
To congure a static IP address:
1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect one of the LAN ports in the back of the
FortiExtender to the Ethernet port of your computer.
2. Congure the computer to be on the same subnet as the FortiExtender by changing
its IP address to 192.168.1.1 and the netmask to 255.255.255.0.
3. Open your web browser and point to the default FortiExtender web GUI address:
http://192.168.1.2
4. In both the username and password elds, type admin and press Enter.
5. Go to Network Conguration.
6. For address mode, select Static.
7. Specify the IP address, netmask, and gateway; and then click APPLY.
