Fortinet FortiGate 1500D
High Performance Next Generation/Edge Firewall for the Enterprise

Features & Benefits:

• Next Generation Threat Protection - Intrusion prevention, application control and antimalware provide superior visibility and protection over traditional firewalls
• High Performance Next Generation Firewall - Up to 11 Gbps IPS performance
• Custom FortiASIC NP6 processors - The latest in purpose-built processors enable best in class performance and superior cost per gigabit protected
• High Speed, High Density Ports - 8 x 10-GbE and 16 x GbE ports support evolving network requirements and avoid security bottlenecks
• Actionable console and reporting - Provides administrators and executives the visibility they need to define and enforce appropriate policies

• Custom FortiASIC™ processors deliver the power you need to detect malicious content at multi-Gigabit speeds
• Other security technologies cannot protect against today’s wide range of content- and connection-based threats because they rely on generalpurpose CPUs, causing a dangerous performance gap
• FortiASIC processors provide the performance needed to block emerging threats, meet rigorous thirdparty certifications, and ensure that your network security solution does not become a network bottleneck

Network Processor

Fortinet’s new, breakthrough FortiASIC NP6 network processor works inline with FortiOS functions delivering:

• Superior firewall performance for IPv4/IPv6, SCTP and multicast traffic with ultralow latency down to 3 microseconds
• VPN, CAPWAP and IP tunnel acceleration
• Anomaly-based intrusion prevention, checksum offload and packet defragmentation
• Traffic shaping and priority queuing

Content Processor

The FortiASIC CP8 content processor works outside of the direct flow of traffic, providing high-speed cryptography and content inspection services including:

• Signature-based content inspection acceleration
• Encryption and decryption offloading

10GE Connectivity for Core Infrastructure

High speed connectivity is essential for network security segmentation at the core of data networks. The FortiGate-1500D provides high 10GE port densities, simplifying network designs without relying on additional devices to bridge desired connectivity

Highlights
