FortiBridge™ products are designed to provide enterprise organizations with
continuous network traffic flow in the event of a power outage or a FortiGate
system failure. The FortiBridge unit bypasses the FortiGate unit to make sure that
the network can continue processing traffic. FortiBridge products are easy to use
and deploy, and you can customize the actions a FortiBridge unit takes when a
power failure or a FortiGate system failure occurs.
The FortiManager™ system is designed to meet the needs of large enterprises
(including managed security service providers) responsible for establishing and
maintaining security policies across many dispersed FortiGate installations. With
this system, you can configure multiple FortiGate devices and monitor their status.
You can also view real-time and historical logs for the FortiGate devices, including
updating firmware images of managed FortiGate devices. The FortiManager
System emphasizes ease of use, including easy integration with third party
systems.
