How to set up your FortiWAN Configuring Network Interface (Network Setting)
Up/Down Stream Threshold : Specify upstream/downstream (Kbps) threshold for the WAN link. WAN link
with traffic that exceeds the threshold values will be considered as failed.
FortiWAN’s Auto Routing and Multihoming (See "Outbound Load Balancing
and Failover (Auto Routing)" and "Inbound Load Balancing and Failover (Multi-
homing)") use the value while balancing traffic between WAN links if the
Threshold function is enabled. Leave it blank or zero if you do not apply
threshold to the WAN link.
MTU : (Maximum Transmission unit) refers to the size of the largest packet or frame
that a given layer of a communications protocol can pass onwards. It allows
dividing the packet into pieces, each small enough to pass over a single link.
Clone MAC Enable : Configure MAC address clone.

LAN Private Subnet
[LAN Private Subnet] is the second most important part for deploying FortiWAN in your network. In contrast with
configurations on WAN Settings to active the WAN link transmission from FortiWAN to Internet (external network),
LAN Private Subnet is the configuration for deploying the internal network on FortiWAN’s LAN ports. There are two
parts for setting LAN private subnet: Basic Subnet and Static Routing Subnet, which respectively are the subnets
connected directly to FortiWAN’s LAN ports and the subnets connected indirectly to FortiWAN via a router. (See
"Scenarios to deploy subnets")
Basic Subnet
Here is a simple example to demonstrate a configuration for the basic subnet in the typical LAN environment.
