Select which language to use when displaying the web UI.
Languages currently supported by the web UI are:
• English
• simplified Chinese
• traditional Chinese
• Japanese
The display’s web pages will use UTF-8 encoding, regardless
of which language you choose. UTF-8 supports multiple
languages, and allows them to display correctly, even when
multiple languages are used on the same web page.
For example, your organization could have web sites in both
English and simplified Chinese. Your FortiWeb administrators
prefer to work in the English version of the web UI. They could
use the web UI in English while writing rules to match content
in both English and simplified Chinese without changing this
setting. Both the rules and the web UI will display correctly, as
long as all rules were input using UTF-8.
Usually, your text input method or your management
computer’s operating system should match the display by
also using UTF-8. If they do not, your input and the web UI
may not display correctly at the same time.
For example, your web browser’s or operating system’s
default encoding for simplified Chinese input may be GB2312.
However, you usually should switch it to be UTF-8 when
using the web UI, unless you are writing regular expressions
that must match HTTP client’s requests, and those requests
use GB2312 encoding.
Note: Regular expressions are impacted by language. For
more information, see “Language support” on page 682.
Note: This setting does not affect the display of the CLI.
