OSPF supports four different

 

 

point-to-

 

 

types of network. This

behavior of the OSPF interface

 

 

 

according to the network type.

 

 

 

If you specify the non-

 

 

 

broadcast keyword, you

 

 

 

must also configure neighbors

 

 

 

using “config neighbor” on

 

 

 

page 177.

 

 

priority

Set the router priority for this

All models.

<priority_integer>

interface.

 

 

 

Router priority is used during

 

 

 

the election of a designated

 

 

 

router (DR) and backup

 

 

 

designated router (BDR).

 

 

 

An interface with router priority

 

 

 

set to 0 can not be elected DR

 

 

 

or BDR. The interface with the

 

 

 

highest router priority wins the

 

 

 

election. If there is a tie for

 

 

 

router priority, router ID is

 

 

 

used.

 

 

 

Point-to-point networks do not

 

 

 

elect a DR or BDR; therefore,

 

 

 

this setting has no effect on a

 

 

 

point-to-point network.

 

 

 

The valid range for

 

 

 

priority_integer is 0 to

 

 

 

255.

 

 

retransmit-interval

The time, in seconds, to wait

All models.

<seconds_integer>

before sending a LSA

 

 

retransmission. The value for

 

 

 

the retransmit interval must be

 

 

 

greater than the expected

 

 

 

round-trip delay for a packet.

 

 

 

The valid range for

 

 

 

seconds_integer is 1 to

 

 

 

65535.

transmit-delay

The estimated time, in

All models.

<seconds_integer>

seconds, required to send a

 

 

link state update packet on this

 

 

 

interface.

 

 

 

OSPF increments the age of

 

 

 

the LSAs in the update packet

 

 

 

to account for transmission

 

 

 

and propagation delays on the

 

 

 

interface.

 

 

 

Increase the value for

The 100A supports multiple deployment modes, including transparent, NAT, and route modes. This flexibility allows organizations to integrate the device into their existing network architecture with ease. The firewall's high throughput capabilities ensure that network performance remains unaffected, even under heavy load from multiple users and devices.

Another notable aspect of the Fortinet 100A is its support for various VPN technologies, including IPsec and SSL VPN. This feature facilitates secure remote access for employees, enabling them to connect to the corporate network safely, regardless of their location. As remote work continues to be a norm in many sectors, this capability is critical for maintaining productivity and security.

In addition to these features, the Fortinet 100A provides comprehensive web filtering capabilities, protecting users from harmful websites and inappropriate content. This protection is essential for organizations looking to maintain a secure and productive environment.

With its combination of powerful security features, flexible deployment options, and robust performance, the Fortinet 100A stands out as an ideal solution for organizations seeking to bolster their cybersecurity measures while ensuring seamless connectivity for users.
