Who is the Fortinet FortiGate 81F Next-Generation Firewall with 1-Year UTP Bundle for?

Companies that need secure internet access, VPN, web filtering and network segmentation. Fortinet FortiGate 81F Next-Generation Firewall with 1-Year UTP Bundle is listed in our FortiGate Firewalls range.

What to check before you buy

  • Size by real throughput with security features enabled (firewall, IPS, SSL inspection), not the headline firewall rating.
  • Count the interfaces and speeds you need, including WAN failover and any 10GbE or SFP+ links.
  • Choose the right support and security subscription bundle - features such as IPS, web filtering and sandboxing need an active licence.
  • Plan high availability with a second unit if downtime is not acceptable.
  • Check the number of concurrent VPN users and sessions against your headcount.
