FortiGate Firewall: Connectivity Provider's device bypass (DHCP Option 61 & PPPOE)

In this video, I demonstrate how to bypass the routers that broadband providers supply in favour of connecting straight to the FortiGate firewall. My demonstration is Sky Broadband, but I know it applies to many others and is not limited to the UK. This is achieved by patching straight from the Optical Network Terminal (ONT) into a WAN interface and using either PPPOE or DHCP Option 61 to send additional information to the provider to allow them to authenticate you.
