Chapter 5: Securing the VNET

In this chapter, you will secure your VNET by deploying a FortiGate NVA, deploying a Route Table, and modifying the Route Table so the Linux VMs will send their traffic to the FortiGate for inspection and filtering. The FortiGate will essentially become the default gateway for all traffic to/from the Linux VMs.

In task three, four, and five, you will confirm Linux VM traffic through the FortiGate and create policies to manage the network traffic.

Tasks to complete

• Task 1: Deploy a FortiGate NVA
• Task 2: Deploy a Route Table and Create a UDR
• Task 3: Confirm Linux VMs access via FortiGate
• Task 4: Configure FortiGate Policies
• Task 5: Confirm Managed Traffic
