The FortiAnalyzer and FortiManager Admin Guides provides great information, but one thing i’ve found it lacking is a concise, quick method of giving a VM a new management IP address through the console so you can manage it through the GUI.
Admin Guide: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortianalyzer/6.2.0/administration-guide/
Here is a quick script you can use for the initial setup after the VM is deployed to get a new management IP setup, default route set, and management protocols enabled:
config system interface
edit port1
set ip 10.10.10.10 255.255.255.0
set allowaccess https ssh
end
config system route
edit 1
set dst 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
set device port1
set gateway 10.10.10.1
end
Now you should be able to access FortiAnalyzer or Manager using the GUI with https://10.10.10.10
