Changing administrative access to your FortiManager system
Administrative access enables an administrator to connect to the FortiManager system to view and change configuration settings. The default configuration of your FortiManager system allows administrative access to one or more of the interfaces of the unit as described in your FortiManager system QuickStart Guide and Install Guide.
You can change administrative access by:
enabling or disabling administrative access from any FortiManager interface
enabling or disabling securing HTTPS administrative access to the Web‑based Manager (recommended)
enabling or disabling HTTP administrative access to the Web‑based Manager (not recommended)
enabling or disabling secure SSH administrative access to the CLI (recommended)
enabling or disabling SSH or Telnet administrative access to the CLI (not recommended).
To change administrative access to your FortiManager system:
1. Go to System Settings > General > Network and select All Interfaces.
2. Select an interface for which to change administrative access.
3. Select one or more Administrative Access types for the interface.
4. Select OK.
