Product Overview
The FortiGate 100F is provided as a next-generation firewall (NGFW) that offers enterprise-grade security and high-performance networking in a compact 1U footprint. It is designed to cater to branch offices, mid-sized enterprises, and distributed networks. It is a combination of strong firewalling with Secure SD-WAN, advanced threat protection, and deep SSL inspection. The FG-100F is a powerful option because it can provide users with high-speed and reliable protection without affecting the performance of the applications; hence, the purpose of the SOC4 security processor, built in and powered by Fortinet, is fulfilled in the FG-100F.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Rapid Security Performance
The use of a custom SOC4 processor from Fortinet to enhance NGFW, IPS, and VPN throughput provides a good level of protection with low latency.
-
Integrated Secure SD-WAN
Provides the ability to steer intelligent applications over multiple links of the WAN to enhance performance and save cost when connecting to clouds and SaaS.
-
End-to-End Threat Protection
Provides real-time defense with FortiGuard services, which include IPS, antivirus, web filtering, application control, and advanced malware detection.
-
Customizable Networking
The FG-100F has 22 GE RJ45, 4 GE SFP, 2 10GE SFP+ ports, which can be configured with versatility to be used as LAN/WAN edge and high-speed uplinks.
-
High-Capacity VPN Support
Supports up to 11.5 Gbps IPSec VPN throughput, allowing safe and large-scale remote connectivity by the branch offices and remote workers.
-
Enterprise-Ready Reliability
Two built-in AC power supplies are redundant to continue working in a mission-critical environment.

Product Information
The FortiGate 100F is the next-generation firewall that combines the latest generation of security and SD-WAN capabilities in a single appliance, providing enhanced security and networking efficiency. Its hardware acceleration provides some steady throughput, even when features like deep packet inspection and resource-consuming intrusion prevention are being used.
The FG-100F is constructed with enterprise-wide edge or branch applications, which have high port density and are therefore flexible to a complicated topology. Being designed with a redundant dual AC power supply, it is built with resilience for 24/7 applications.
