About the FortiGate-5000 series chassis

The FortiGate-5000 series Security Systems are chassis-based systems that MSSPs and large enterprises can use to provide subscriber security services such as firewall, VPN, antivirus protection, spam filtering, web filtering and intrusion prevention (IPS). The wide variety of system configurations available with FortiGate-5000 series provide flexibility to meet the changing needs of growing high performance networks. The FortiGate-5000 series chassis support multiple hot-swappable FortiGate-5000 series boards and power supplies. This modular approach provides a scalable, high-performance and failure-proof solution.
