Deployment Scenarios

Campus Deployment (NGFW)

This scenario illustrates how FortiGate, as a Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW), secures a campus network. It integrates with other Fortinet products like FortiClient (endpoint protection), FortiAP (access points), FortiSwitch (switching), FortiWeb (web application firewall), FortiManager (management), FortiAnalyzer (analytics), and FortiSandbox (advanced threat protection) to provide comprehensive security across the network.

Other Fortinet devices like FortiClient, FortiAP, FortiSwitch, FortiWeb, FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, and FortiSandbox are shown integrated into the network fabric.

Enterprise Branch Deployment (Secure SD-WAN)

This scenario shows a Secure SD-WAN deployment for an enterprise branch. It highlights how FortiGate optimizes WAN connectivity for specific business requirements, accelerates multi-cloud access, and uses Forward Error Correction (FEC) for WAN path correction. It connects the branch to the internet, SaaS applications (like Office 365, Salesforce), and multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure) via IPSec tunnels and MPLS. Key components include FortiGate, FortiSwitch, FortiAP, SD-WAN Orchestrator, and FortiAnalyzer.
