Firmware upgrade via the FortiExtender Web-based Manager:

1.Connect the FortiExtender unit to a separate private switch or hub, or directly to your

management computer via a cross-over cable.

2.Configure the management computer to be on the same subnet as in the internal interface of

the FortiExtender unit by changing the IP address of the management computer to

192.168.1.1 and the netmask to 255.255.255.0.

Product Integration and Support

Modes of operation

FortiExtender supports two modes of operation.

Connected UTM mode

This is the default mode of operation where the FortiGate provides centralized management of the FortiExtender infrastructure. In this mode FortiExtender discovers the FortiGate using the CAPWAP protocol and WAN traffic is tunneled to the FortiGate's wireless WAN virtual interface. For connect UTM mode, FortiGates must run FortiOS v5.2.0 or later.

Standalone mode

In this mode of operation, any device (e.g: PC or FortiGate) can be connected to the FortiExtender. Wireless WAN traffic is then bridged to the Ethernet Interface of the FortiExtender allowing the device to get the IP address from the wireless service provider. This mode can be used for trial mode or small deployments since centralized management is not provided. To set CAPWAP mode from the FortiExtender command line interface, enter the following command: ext_cli --conn-mode capwap The FortiExtender will reboot and operate in CAPWAP mode. To set standalone mode from the FortiExtender command line interface, enter the following command: ext_cli --conn-mode standalone The FortiExtender will reboot and operate in standalone mode. A FortiGate is not required when the FortiExtender is in Standalone mode. Product Integration and Support Page 9 FortiExtender v2.0.0 Release Notes
