Setting | Description | |
Administration Ports | ||
HTTP | Type the port number on which the FortiADC appliance will listen for HTTP administrative access. The default is 80. This setting has an effect only if HTTP is enabled as an administrative access protocol on at least one network interface. For details, see “Configuring the physical network interfaces”. | |
HTTPS | Type the port number on which the FortiADC appliance will listen for HTTPS administrative access. The default is 443. This setting has an effect only if HTTPS is enabled as an administrative access protocol on at least one network interface. For details, see “Configuring the physical network interfaces”. | |
SSH | Type the port number on which the FortiADC appliance will listen for SSH administrative access. The default is 22. This setting has an effect only if SSH is enabled as an administrative access protocol on at least one network interface. For details, see “Configuring the physical network interfaces”. | |
Web Administration | ||
Language | Select which language to use when displaying the web UI. Languages currently supported by the web UI are: • English • simplified Chinese • traditional Chinese • Japanese The display’s web pages will use UTF-8 encoding, regardless of which language you choose. UTF-8 supports multiple languages, and allows them to display correctly, even when multiple languages are used on the same web page. For example, your organization could have web sites in both English and simplified Chinese. Your FortiADC administrators prefer to work in the English version of the web UI. They could use the web UI in English while writing rules to match content in both English and simplified Chinese without changing this setting. Both the rules and the web UI will display correctly, as long as all rules were input using UTF-8. Usually, your text input method or your management computer’s operating system should match the display by also using UTF-8. If they do not, your input and the web UI may not display correctly at the same time. For example, your web browser’s or operating system’s default encoding for simplified Chinese input may be GB2312. However, you usually should switch it to be UTF-8 when using the web UI, unless you are writing regular expressions that must match HTTP client’s requests, and those requests use GB2312 encoding. Note: This setting does not affect the display of the CLI. | |
Timeout | Type the number of minutes that a web UI connection can be idle before the administrator must log in again. The maximum is 480 minutes (8 hours). To maintain security, reduce the idle timeout from the default value of 30 minutes. | |
Menu Settings | To show a menu category in the navigation pane on the left side of the GUI, enable it. |
