1 Basic Connections LAN/PoE Internet Optional Power Connection 1. Insert one end of an Ethernet cable into the LAN/PoE port on the device. 2. Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable into the PoE LAN port on your FortiGate appliance. Ensure that FortiGate and FortiExtender are on the same subnet. 3. Optionally, if you are not using PoE, connect the device to a power outlet using a power adapter.
2 Assembly 1. Remove the dust cover that protects the SIM sockets and fits over the antenna posts. 2. Insert your MicroSIM (3FF) SIM card(s) into the SIM socket(s). 3. Observe the following guidelines: • If installing one SIM card, you can insert the card into either SIM socket. • If installing two SIM cards, use SIM1 as the primary socket and SIM2 as the secondary. 4. Insert the SIM card(s) into the SIM socket(s). (If necessary, press the card again to remove it.) 5.
3 IP Configuration After you have connected the FortiExtender network interfaces, the device automatically attempts to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. If you do not use DHCP, you can configure a static IP address. To configure a static IP address: 1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect one of the LAN ports in the back of the FortiExtender to the Ethernet port of your computer. 2. Configure the computer to be on the same subnet as the FortiExtender by changing its IP address to 192.168.1.
