FortiGate-60R Installation and Configuration Guide
The FortiGate Antivirus Firewall supports network-based deployment of
application-level services—including antivirus protection and full-scan content filtering.
FortiGate Antivirus Firewalls improve network security, reduce network misuse and
abuse, and help you use communications resources more efficiently without
compromising the performance of your network. FortiGate Antivirus Firewalls are
ICSA-certified for firewall, IPSec and antivirus services.
Your FortiGate Antivirus Firewall is a dedicated easily managed security device that
delivers a full suite of capabilities that include:
•
application-level services such as virus protection and content filtering,
•
network-level services such as firewall, intrusion detection, VPN, and traffic
shaping.
Your FortiGate Antivirus Firewall employs Fortinet's Accelerated Behavior and
Content Analysis System (ABACAS™) technology, which leverages breakthroughs in
chip design, networking, security, and content analysis. The unique ASIC-based
architecture analyzes content and behavior in real-time, enabling key applications to
be deployed right at the network edge where they are most effective at protecting your
networks. The FortiGate series complements existing solutions, such as host-based
antivirus protection, and enables new applications and services while greatly lowering
costs for equipment, administration and maintenance.
The FortiGate-60 model is ideally suited
for small businesses, remote offices, retail
stores, and broadband telecommuter
sites. The FortiGate-60 Antivirus Firewall
features dual WAN link support for
redundant internet connections, and an integrated 4-port switch that eliminates the
need for an external hub or switch. Networked devices connect directly to the
FortiGate-60 unit.
The FortiGate-60R is limited to a maximum of 12 users.
FortiGate ICSA-certified antivirus protection virus scans web (HTTP), file transfer
(FTP), and email (SMTP, POP3, and IMAP) content as it passes through the
FortiGate. If a virus is found, antivirus protection removes the file containing the virus
from the content stream and forwards an replacement message to the intended
recipient.
