I'm Keith Barker, a 2x CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert).

In this video you'll learn the entire first time setup of a Fortinet system. This is an in-depth overview of initial setup for beginners or anyone who is looking for a concise overview of the entire Fortinet stack. We will walk through each step individually including a factory reset of all the hardware. Then we will start the entire configuration from scratch by setting up IP Addresses, an SD-WAN zone, and configuring the FortiSwitches. We will also walk through setting up VLANs, FortiSwitches, FortiAPs (access points), Wi-Fi, permissions, NAT, and SD-Wan Rules ( and SLA targets). If you want to know the basics of setting up this whole system, you've come to the right place!

I'm am your guy if you are:

👉 New to IT and don't know where to start
👉Currently in IT, and want to learn more advanced ideas
👉 Anyone who wants to learn about the basics of technology in general

I believe that anyone can improve their situation by gaining new skills, especially in information technology.
