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.
The FortiGate-60M model is
ideally suited for small business,
remote offices, retail stores, and
telecommuters. The
FortiGate-60M 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-60M unit.
The FortiGate-60M includes an internal modem that can be used as either a backup
or standalone connection to the Internet.
• In backup mode, the modem interface automatically takes over from a selected
ethernet interface when that ethernet interface is unavailable.
• In standalone mode, the modem interface is the connection from the FortiGate unit
to the Internet.
The FortiGate-60M also supports advanced features such as 802.1Q VLANs, virtual
domains, high availability (HA), and the RIP and OSPF routing protocols.
