Mounting Your FortiAP Unit

Page 2

Using the provided hardware, the FortiAP unit can be attached to a ceiling or wall.

To attach the unit to a ceiling or wall using the mounting bracket:

1. Attach the mounting bracket to the wall or ceiling using the Mounting Template

and the provided wall/ceiling mounting hardware kit (P3.5x32 screws and

Mounting Anchors).

2. Insert the provided P2.6x12 screws into the bottom cover of the FortiAP unit.

3. Leave enough of the screws exposed to ensure that the unit can be attached to

the mounting bracket.

If extra space is required, use the provided spacers and long screws from the

T-Rail mounting hardware kit to increase the space between the unit and the

mounting bracket.

4. Mount the FortiAP unit on the mounted mounting bracket by rotating the unit

clockwise about 90 degrees to secure it in place.

You can now proceed with connecting your FortiAP unit.

To attach the unit to a ceiling using the provided T-rail connectors:

1. Attach the T-rail connectors to the bottom cover of the FortiAP unit using the

provided P2.6x10 screws.

Two sizes of T-rail connectors are included in the mounting hardware kit: 15/16in

(2.38cm) and 9/16in (1.43cm).

If extra space is required to accommodate drop ceiling tiles, use the provided

spacers and P2.6x25 screws.

2. Line up the connected T-rail connectors with an appropriately sized rail and press

the unit onto the rail until it snaps into place.

Note: To protect your FortiAP unit from unauthorized removal, use the Kensington

Security Slot to attach a cable lock (cable lock is not included).

Using the provided mounting hardware, attach the FortiAP unit to a wall or ceiling,

as described in the previous section.

Adequate grounding must be provided to the FortiAP unit and the PoE injector, in

compliance with your local electrical code or regulations.

Caution: This device complies with IEEE 802.3af PoE speciﬁcation. Do not use any

PoE injectors that are not IEEE 802.3af compliant as they may damage your device.

To connect the FortiAP unit:

1. Insert an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port of the FortiAP unit.

2. Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable into your FortiGate, FortiWiﬁ, or

FortiSwitch unit.

If you are using PoE, ensure that the Ethernet cable is connected to an applicable

port on your FortiGate unit, FortiSwitch unit, or PoE injector.

3. If you are not using PoE, connect a region-speciﬁc AC plug adapter to the optional

power adapter by inserting the round disk into the adapter and rotating clockwise

until you hear the disk lock in place. Then insert the DC plug of the power adapter

into the DC power jack on the FortiAP unit.

Note: For FortiWiﬁ units, the wireless controller feature is only supported on units

running FortiOS 4.0 MR3 and higher.

Caution: This equipment is to be connected only to PoE networks without routing

to the outside plant.

Conﬁguring Your FortiAP Unit

The FortiAP unit is designed to require no conﬁguration in most networks. Zero

Conﬁguration mode works if the unit is directly connected to the FortiGate or

FortiWiﬁ performing the Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) functions, or on the same

layer-2 network and subnet as the FortiGate or FortiWiﬁ unit.

If the FortiAP wireless controller’s IP address cannot be determined using Zero

Conﬁguration mode, or if the network uses static IP addresses, it can be conﬁgured

to use a static IP address.

To enable the FortiAP using Zero Conﬁguration:

1. After connecting the FortiAP unit as described in the previous chapter, the unit

goes through its boot procedure and requests an IP address from the DHCP

server.

2. If the IP address is retrieved successfully, the FortiAP enters discovery mode to

locate a FortiGate or FortiWiﬁ wireless controller. The discovery modes are:

• Broadcast

• Multicast

• DHCP option 138

3. Verify that the FortiAP has successfully connected to the controller.

In the FortiGate Web-based Manager, go to WiFi Controller > Managed Access

Points > Managed FortiAP. A successfully discovered unit displays an orange

circle with a question mark.

4. Select the access point and click Edit.

5. In the State ﬁeld, select Authorize.

6. In the AP Proﬁle ﬁeld, select Change, then select a proﬁle from the list and click

OK.

The conﬁguration is downloaded from the wireless controller to the FortiAP and

the WiFi LED lights up.

To enable the FortiAP with a static IP address:

1. Connect the FortiAP device to a separate private switch or hub, or directly connect

it to your management computer via a cross-over cable.

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

interface of the FortiAP unit:

a. Browse to the Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings >

Local Area Connection Properties > Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)

Properties.

b. Change the IP address of the management computer to 192.168.1.3 and the

netmask to 255.255.255.0.

3. Use a Telnet apllication to connect to IP address 192.168.1.2.

4. Type admin in the Name ﬁeld, leave the Password ﬁeld blank, and press Enter.

5. Conﬁgure a static IP address for the FortiAP unit and netmask & gateway

information for your network, using the following commands:

cfg -a ADDR_MODE=STATIC

cfg –a AP_IPADDR=xxx.xxx.xxx.xx

cfg –a AP_NETMASK=255.255.255.0

cfg –a IPGW=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

cfg –a AC_IPADDR_1=zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz

where xxx is the IP address of the FortiAP unit, yyy is the Gateway IP address and

zzz is the IP address of the FortiGate Wireless Controller.

6. Save the conﬁguration by typing the following command:

cfg –c

7. Unplug the FortiAP unit and plug it back in order for the conﬁguration to take

effect.

8. Move the FortiAP to the intended deployment location and connect the Ethernet

cable as described in the Connecting Your FortiAP Unit section.

9. Log in to the FortiGate controller Web-based Manager, and go to WiFi Controller

> Managed Access Points > Managed FortiAP. A successfully discovered unit

displays an orange circle with a question mark in the Status column.

10.Select the access point and click Edit.

11.In the State ﬁeld, select Authorize.

12.In the Edit FortiAP dialog box, select Enable Wireless Radio. Leave the remaining

settings at their default values. The conﬁguration is downloaded from the FortiGate

unit to the FortiAP device.
