When placing the FortiGate unit on any flat, stable surface, ensure the unit has at

least 1.5 inches (3.75 cm) of clearance on each side to ensure adequate airflow

for cooling.

For rack mounting, use the mounting brackets and screws included with the

FortiGate unit.

To install the FortiGate unit into a rack

1 Attach the mounting brackets to the side to the unit so that the brackets are on the

front portion of the FortiGate unit. Ensure that the screws are tight and not loose.

The following photos illustrate how the brackets should be mounted. Note that the

screw configuration may vary depending on your FortiGate unit.
