FortiAP™ Wireless Starter Kit

The purpose of the Wireless Starter Kit is to provide a very cost effective and simplified

way to showcase the capability of FortiAP wireless access points. This document

introduces the FortiAP unit and the FortiOS wireless controller feature as demonstrated in

the Starter Kit.

FortiOS is the operating system of FortiGate and FortiWiFi units.

FortiAP unit overview

A FortiAP unit, of which there are several models, is a compact wireless access point

device. Indoor units can be wall-mounted or ceiling mounted. An optional ceiling tile rail

mount is available. It is also acceptable to place the unit on a desktop or shelf. There is

also an outdoor model available.

The FortiAP unit contains the radio equipment required for a wireless access point. It must

be controlled by a FortiGate or FortiWiFi unit.

Features

• Most models have dual radios for simultaneous 802.11a/n & 802.11 b/g/n operation.

FortiAP-210B is a single-radio model.

• Four high-gain dual band (2.4GHz, 5GHz) omni-directional antennas. Single radio

models have two antennas. Indoor models have internal antennas.

• 2x2 MIMO configuration using the latest signal processing technology. 600Mbps total

throughput for dual-radio units, 300Mbps for single-radio units.

• 14 SSIDs for client access, (7 for single radio models)

• 2 SSIDs for dedicated monitoring, (1 for single radio models)

• Firmware upgradable through the wireless controller.

Rear panel

All connections to the FortiAP unit are made on the real panel.

In typical use as a wireless access point, only Port 0 is used. An Ethernet cable connects

Port 0 to a port on the FortiGate unit. The Power jack is connected to the power supply

provided with the FortiAP unit. Optionally, you can use a power-over-Ethernet (POE)

adaptor to avoid the need for a power outlet near the FortiAP unit. In that case, the power

output of the POE adaptor connects to the Power jack.

Front panel

The front panel contains indicators that show the status of the unit.

Port 1, 2, 3, 4 Green indicates a connection to the corresponding port on the rear panel.

Wireless Flashing indicates wireless network running.

Port 0 Green indicates a network connection to Port 0 on the rear panel.

Port 0 connects to the FortiGate unit that acts as the wireless controller.

Power Flashing - power connected but unit not managed.

Lit steadily - indicates that the unit has power and is managed.

Power options

The FortiAP unit requires 12 volts and power supply with universal 100-240 volt input is

provided. If power is not conveniently available at the mounting location, it is possible to

use a power-over-Ethernet (POE) adaptor to feed 12 volt power to the device through the

Ethernet cable. POE adaptors have two components: one to combine power and Ethernet

and the other to separate them again. The wiring looks like this:

FortiAP units have been tested with the LinkSys WAPPOE12 adaptor. Use the power

supply provided with the FortiAP, rather than the power supply provided with the POE unit.

FortiOS wireless controller

The FortiOS wireless controller feature enables FortiGate and FortiWiFi units to manage

FortiAP units. The wireless controller configuration is composed of three types of objects:

Virtual AP — defines the security settings for your wireless network. This is similar to the

wlan interface settings on a FortiWiFi unit and it creates a virtual network interface.

AP Profile — defines the radio settings, such as band (802.11g for example) and channel

selection. It also selects the Virtual APs to which the settings apply. Any change to the AP

Profile affects all APs assigned to that profile.

Physical AP — represents the FortiAP units that the wireless controller has discovered.

There is one physical access point definition for each FortiAP unit. The Physical AP

configuration selects the AP Profile that applies that FortiAP unit.

Connecting the hardware

Connect all of the hardware as described below.

To connect the FortiAP unit to the wireless controller

1Connect Port 0 of one FortiAP unit to one of the Internal ports on the FortiGate unit.

2Connect Port 0 of the other FortiAP unit to the DMZ port on the FortiGate unit.

1After mounting the FortiAP unit, connect the Ethernet cable to Port 0 and connect the

power supply to the Power jack.

2Connect the WAN1 port of the FortiGate unit to the Internet.

3At each FortiAP unit, connect the power supply (or the power cable of the POE unit) to

the Power jack.

4Connect the power supply to the FortiGate unit.

The FortiGate supply is rated at 3A. The FortiAP supplies are 1.5A.
