Factory Sealed, Valid Support Entitlement, with 1 year as described. Half the price of others
This says it all.Factory Sealed, Valid Support Entitlement, Seller BlueAlly listed as an authorized seller. with 1 year as described. Half the price of othersBeen using some older ebay fortigates for a long time they work great, but I needed VPN access and would like better filtering for my children. Setup for me was easy but this is like my 3rd HA pair of these so I knew what to expect. I enjoyed the UI improvements in 7.4 having come from 6.0.I am able to control dns better and retired my piholes. If it becomes where I am still getting ads then because these support DoH I can always forward to NextDNS. However so far so good using forti dns servers and dns filtering.If the Application control is even just as good as it was in 6.0 I am sure I will be happy with it, as when I was using the ebay models I was able to filter for my children but the application list was years old and took a lot of manual work. However it should be noted pretty good control can be achieved with manual work so even if with a new license and fresh db there is a need I know manual works.

Great product. Good price. Setup was easy. Installed and working.

One of the best UTM Firewalls in this price range
For the money I find this to be one of the best SMB firewalls available.Compared to Sonicwall (which we also manage) there are more configuration options (including an inbuilt DNS server and slightly more flexible SSL vpn portal configuration), a more seemless/robust endpoint protection/NAC system, and SSL scanning does not require an additional license.If you require a large number of ipsec tunnels, the Fortigate CLI has a great diagnostic tool set. In mixed router configurations I often lean on those tools when basic logs fail me.I also work with Zywalls, which though great bang for buck in terms of some of the aforementioned features missing from Sonicwall, it doesn’t hold a candle in terms of advanced end point NAC. The days of layered security are dwindling and it’s vital to consider network access controls where deployment is viable.Also, be sure to check out the Fortinet cookbooks. Object based firewalls can lead to a bit of configuration complexity (a feature implementation can require numerous building blocks), the cookbooks lay out common scenarios well.Over all, Fortigate is my go to when I need full UTM and SSL-vpn in a single package.

Es ist ein alter Lagerware. Fortigate gibt sein Router mit 3 Monate Lizenzen für viele Extra Features aus. Wir haben diesen Router so erhalten, dass es seit zwei Monaten gar keine Lizenzen hatte und auch der Hardware Garantie seit 5 Monate lief. Im Austausch der Preis mit 331 € inkl. Lieferung war unschlagbar. Wir können die Firmware-Updates ohne Probleme herunterladen und installieren, so dieser Kauf hat für mich gut gelohnt.Multi-WAN Router mit SD-WAN, Firewalling and Forticlient VPN Anschluss gehen super, ich brauchte nur diese Features, die ohne Lizenzen erreichbar sind.

Dopo un attacco hacker subito in azienda, ho scelto di acquistare per difesa delle reti personali. Di fortigate mi ha colpito l’ecosistema e la qualità dei prodotti. Firewall ben rifinito, robusto, facile da usare. Unico neo,è tutto in inglese, il che lo rende difficile da configurare in alcuni passaggi. Per quanto riguarda il software di gestione, consente di gestire fino 3 vpn e proteggere in modo dinamico e controllabile reti aziendali di piccole medie dimmensioni. il software viene aggiornato con costanza ed è compatibile sia con mac che con windows. La mia versione non ha il wifi, ma consiglio a chi deve fare tutto con 1 solo hardware, di acquistare la versione che ha le antenne. Ci sono diversi pacchetti di protezione e licenze aggiuntive, ma sono a pagamento. La cosa che in assoluto rende l’azienda leader di settore è la possibilità di gestire tutti i parametri in modo scalabile e personalizzato, andando a ridurre sensibilmente i rischi informatici di attacco alle reti e schermando i sistemi da siti web invadenti e pericolosi. consigliato per chi ha bambini o piccole attività commerciali
