What type of access rights can be assigned to FortiGate administrators?

In FortiGate, administrators can be assigned various types of access rights based on their roles and responsibilities within the organization. One of the key access levels is full administrative access, which grants complete control over the FortiGate device. This level of access allows administrators to configure settings, manage policies, view logs, and make changes to the system without restrictions.

Having full administrative access is essential for tasks such as monitoring network security, troubleshooting issues, and conducting updates or changes to configurations. It empowers administrators to respond to security incidents effectively and maintain the integrity of the network.

Other access rights, such as read-only or read and write access, limit what administrators can do. Read-only access allows users to view configurations and logs but prohibits changes, while read and write access allows modifications but may still restrict some critical administrative functions. Similarly, not granting any access at all would not serve any administrative purpose. Full administrative access is thus crucial for ensuring comprehensive management and oversight of the FortiGate security appliance.
