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.
The 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.
The FortiGate Antivirus Firewall uses 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-60 model is ideally
suited for small businesses, remote
offices, retail stores, and
telecommuters. 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-60 also supports advanced features such as 802.1Q VLANs, virtual
domains, high availability (HA), and the RIP and OSPF routing protocols.
The FortiGate unit default configuration includes a default firewall policy and IP
addresses and is only a few steps away from protecting your network. There are
several ways to configure basic FortiGate settings:
• the web-based manager,
• the command line interface (CLI), or
• the setup wizard.
