# FortiWiFi

> Connect a Fortinet FortiWiFi appliance to Myrmex over SSH — create the access account and add the integration.

import { Note, Steps, Step, CardGroup, Card, Tip } from '@mintlify/components';

Connect your **Fortinet FortiWiFi** (FortiOS, Wi-Fi models) so Myrmex can read its configuration, audit its hardening, help you clean up policies, and — with approval — apply changes. Myrmex reaches the device over **SSH** through a [Collector](/documentation/agent-endpoint-security/collector-mode) on your network, on demand — nothing is stored on the Myrmex side.

## What Myrmex Can Do

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Read & troubleshoot" icon="magnifying-glass">
    Inspect system status, interfaces, routing, sessions, policies, VPNs, Wi-Fi SSIDs, and HA — read-only diagnostics, pulled live.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Hardening audit" icon="shield-halved">
    Run a [Security Posture](/documentation/security-posture/overview) audit across the device's FortiOS hardening controls.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Policy hygiene" icon="broom">
    Find shadowed, unused, or zero-hit firewall policies and propose cleanups.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Backup & diff" icon="floppy-disk">
    Back up the configuration on demand and compare revisions over time; with approval, apply rule and VPN changes.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Before You Start

* A **Collector** deployed on a network that can reach the FortiWiFi's management IP over SSH. See [Deploying the agent](/documentation/agent-endpoint-security/installation).
* **SSH enabled** on the FortiWiFi management interface.
* An **administrator account** Myrmex can use to log in (a read-only profile is enough for analysis; a read-write profile is required to apply changes).

## Step 1 — Create the Access Account on FortiWiFi

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable SSH on the management interface">
    In **Network → Interfaces**, edit the management interface and enable **SSH** under Administrative Access.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create an admin profile (optional, recommended)">
    In **System → Admin Profiles**, create a profile scoped to what Myrmex should do — read-only for analysis, or read-write to allow changes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create the administrator">
    In **System → Administrators**, add an administrator with a strong password and assign the profile above (use the **super\_admin** profile for full access). Note the **username** and **password** — you'll enter them in Myrmex.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Prefer least privilege: start with a read-only account, and only grant read-write once you want the agents to apply changes for you.
</Tip>

## Step 2 — Add the Integration in Myrmex

From the **Directory**, choose **Add Integration → FortiWiFi**, then fill in:

| Field           | Description                                                                                                             |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**        | A unique name for this FortiWiFi instance.                                                                              |
| **Description** | Optional note to identify the device.                                                                                   |
| **Collector**   | The [Collector](/documentation/agent-endpoint-security/collector-mode) that will open the SSH connection to the device. |
| **IP**          | The IP address or hostname of the FortiWiFi.                                                                            |
| **SSH Port**    | The SSH port (default `22`).                                                                                            |
| **Username**    | The FortiWiFi SSH username with super\_admin profile (created in Step 1).                                               |
| **Password**    | The SSH password for the user.                                                                                          |
| **VDOM**        | The Virtual Domain name (default `root`).                                                                               |
| **Model**       | The FortiWiFi model series.                                                                                             |
| **Version**     | The FortiOS version.                                                                                                    |

## Connect

Click **Connect** to validate the SSH connection and finish. The FortiWiFi then appears under **Environment → Integrations**, and you can start asking the AI about it in the Workspace.

<Note>
  This integration is operated by the [Integration Specialist agent](/documentation/multi-agent-system/integration-specialist-agent), which runs the FortiOS CLI on your behalf. Browse more connectors in the [Integrations directory](/documentation/integrations/overview).
