Configuring the ADSL interface
This section describes how to configure the ADSL interface on a
FortiGate-60ADSL. It describes the differences between ADSL and other
FortiGate interface configuration procedures. For more detailed information refer
to the FortiGate Administration Guide.
The FortiGate-60ADSL unit contains an Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line
(ADSL) interface. This provides much higher communication speeds than
standard telephone modems.
Configuring the ADSL interface using the web-based manager
You configure the ADSL interface like any other FortiGate physical network
interface. The information that you provide depends on the addressing mode
required by your ISP. Static addressing using IPOA or EOA only requires an IP
address and netmask. If you are using dynamic addressing, you need to configure
the interface as described in “Configuring DHCP on the ADSL interface” on
page 60 or “Configuring PPPoE or PPPoA on the ADSL interface” on page 61.
To configure the ADSL interface
1 Go to System > Network > Interface.
2 Select Create New or select the Edit icon of an existing interface.
3 In the Addressing mode section, select IPoA or EoA.
4 Complete the following and select Apply.
The ADSL modem interface is available on the FortiGate-60ADSL unit only.

Note: The ADSL interface will only function when using the FortiGate unit in NAT/Route
mode. Changing to Transparent mode will disable the ADSL interface.
