Using the front panel’s control buttons and LCD display
On FortiMail-400 and FortiMail-2000 models, you can use the front panel’s control buttons and LCD display to configure:
- IP addresses and netmasks for each of the network interfaces
- the default gateway
- the operating mode
You can also use the front panel to reset the FortiMail unit to the default settings for its firmware version.
