Hardware installation
Follow the instructions below to install your FortiGate 30E.
l The flat antennas are for the 3G/4G LTE modem and must be mounted on both sides.
l The Wi-Fi antennas are on the backside. For a non-Wi-Fi unit, there are no Wi-Fi
antennas on the backside.
l If the GPS connector is present, be sure to attach the GPS antenna as well.
1.
Attach the Wi-Fi and 3G/4G antennas to the unit. Refer to the notes above.
2.
Use the power cable provided in the package to connect the device to a power outlet.
3.
Use an Ethernet cable to connect the device to your network.
4.
Use another Ethernet cable to connect the device (via any port from port1 through port4) to your PC, hub, or switch.
Check LTE Modem Driver Status and AT command interface
Because the internal LTE Modem is connected to the device via the USB interface, you can check its status via the USB
devfs with "fnsysctl cat /proc/bus/usb/devices":
T: Bus=02 Lev=02 Prnt=02 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 5 Spd=5000 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 3.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 9 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=1199 ProdID=9091 Rev= 0.06
S: Manufacturer=Sierra Wireless, Incorporated
S: Product=Sierra Wireless EM7565 Qualcomm ® Snapdragon ™ X16 LTE-A
S: SerialNumber=UF00227145031047
You can see that the vendor ID of the modem is 1199, the product ID is 9091, and the modem name is EM7565.
Look for the following lines. These descriptors are for the USB interface 0/2/3 and are bound to USB driver qcserial,
which means they are USB serial ports. Beware that they are enumerated as /dev/ttyusb0~ttyusb2 in the system. The
naming conventions are different in FortiOS from the traditional Linux kernel.
