About this document
This FortiGate Version 3.0 MR4 Administration Guide provides detailed
information about FortiGate™ web-based manager options and how to use them.
This guide also contains some information about the FortiGate CLI.
This administration guide describes web-based manager functions in the same
order as the web-based manager menu. The document begins with a general
description of the FortiGate web-based manager and a description of FortiGate
virtual domains. Following these chapters, each item in the System menu, Router
menu, Firewall menu, and VPN menu gets a separate chapter. Then User,
AntiVirus, Intrusion Protection, Web Filter, AntiSpam, IM/P2P, and Log & Report
are all described in single chapters. The document concludes with a detailed
index.
The most recent version of this document is available from the FortiGate page of
the Fortinet Technical Documentation web site. The information in this document
is also available in a slightly different form as FortiGate web-based manager
online help.
You can find more information about FortiOS v3.0 from the FortiGate page of the
Fortinet Technical Documentation web site as well as from the Fortinet Knowledge
Center.
