Introduction

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.

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.

Secure installation, configuration, and management

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.
