The FortiAnalyzer unit can be configured and managed using the Web-based Manager or the CLI. This section will step you through connecting to the unit via the Web-based Manager.
For more information on connecting your specific FortiAnalyzer unit, read that device’s
QuickStart Guide.To connect to the Web-based Manager:
1. Connect the unit to a management computer using an Ethernet cable.
2. Configure the management computer to be on the same subnet as the internal interface of the FortiAnalyzer unit:
• IP address: 192.168.1.2
• Netmask: 255.255.255.0.
3. On the management computer, start a supported web browser and browse to https://192.168.1.99.

You should now be able to use the FortiAnalyzer Web-based Manager.
| If the network interfaces have been configured differently during installation, the URL and/or permitted administrative access protocols (such as HTTPS) may no longer be in their default state. |
For information on enabling administrative access protocols and configuring IP addresses, see
“Configuring network interfaces”.
| If the URL is correct and you still cannot access the Web-based Manager, you may also need to configure static routes. For details, see “Static routes”. |
