Note:
1.
Make sure the proxy settings of the web browser are disabled. For example, open Internet Explorer and select
"Internet Option" on "Tools" menu. Click the "Connection" tab, "LAN settings" and open "Local Area Network
Settings" dialog box, then disable "Proxy server".
2.
Administrator has privileges to monitor and modify system parameters, while Monitor can monitor ONLY. It is
strong recommended that the passwords be changed ASAP, and store it in a safe and secure location.
3.
Only 1 Administrator can be logged in at one time. A 2nd Admin logging on will terminate the session of the 1st
login.

Using the web UI
FortiWAN's services (load balancing, fault tolerance and other optional services) are based on Policy and Filter.
Policies (or called Classes as well) are specified items indicating different actions for a service. Policies are applied to
different objects classified by the predefined filters. Basically, a object is classified by the combinations of When,
Source, Destination and TCP/UDP/ICMP Service. A filter contains the settings of those items When, Source,
Destination and Service, and also an associated Policy. Traffic that matches the filter will be applied to the specified
policy.
Configuration on When
This is for filtering traffic by different time period which is predefined in "Busyhour Settings".
Configuration on Source and Destination
This is for filtering the established sessions from/to specified source/destination. The options are:
IPv4/IPv6 Address : Matches sessions coming from or going to a single IPv4/IPv6 address. e.g.
192.168.1.4.
