In this video, you will learn the entire initial setup of a Fortinet system. This is an in-depth overview of the initial setup for beginners or anyone looking for a compact overview of the entire Fortinet stack. We will walk through each step one by one, including a factory reset of all the hardware. Then we will start the entire configuration from scratch by setting up IP addresses, an SD-WAN zone, and the FortiSwitches. We will also walk through setting up VLANs, FortiSwitches, FortiAPs (access points), WiFi, permissions, NAT, and SD-WAN rules (and SLA targets). If you want to learn the basics of setting up this entire system, you have come to the right place!

I am your man if you:

Are you new to IT and don't know where to start?
Currently in IT and want to learn more advanced ideas
Anyone who wants to learn the basics of technology in general

I am convinced that everyone can improve their situation by acquiring new skills, especially in the field of information technology.
