OVERVIEW

What the FortiGate 2000E was for

The FortiGate 2000E is a mid-range enterprise and data-center next-generation firewall built on the NP6 network processor and the ninth-generation CP9 content processor. It is a legacy model: Fortinet stopped taking new orders on 2025-05-02, so DataCenter360.ca supplies FortiGuard and FortiCare renewals for units already in service rather than new appliances. Renewal coverage runs to 2029-05-02 and support ends 2030-05-02.

If you are still running a FortiGate 2000E today, the direct replacement is the FortiGate 900G; the FortiGate 2600F is the other common landing spot. Both keep your FortiOS policy set and FortiGuard subscriptions, so a migration is a configuration conversion rather than a redesign — we can quote FortiConverter for that. See the full Fortinet end-of-life list for lifecycle dates across the catalog.

FAQ

FortiGate 2000E - frequently asked questions

No. The FortiGate 2000E reached End of Order on 2025-05-02, so Fortinet no longer sells new units and DataCenter360.ca cannot source new hardware. We do supply FortiGuard and FortiCare renewals for appliances already in service. For new deployments, see the FortiGate 900G.

FortiGuard and FortiCare renewals for the FortiGate 2000E are available until 2029-05-02 (the last service extension date). Fortinet support for the platform ends on 2030-05-02. After that the appliance receives no signature updates, firmware fixes, or TAC support.

The FortiGate 900G is the closest current-generation equivalent; the FortiGate 2600F is the other common choice. Both run current FortiOS with the same FortiGuard service catalog, so policies and subscriptions carry over. We can size the replacement against your actual throughput — ask for a quote.

Yes. FortiConverter performs a one-time configuration conversion from the FortiGate 2000E to the replacement appliance, moving interfaces, policies, objects, and VPN configuration. It is ordered as a service SKU and can be added to your upgrade quote.

The FortiGate 2000E uses Fortinet’s NP6 + CP9 security processors — the NP network processor for firewall and VPN acceleration, and the CP content processor for SSL and signature inspection. Current-generation models use the newer NP7 and CP9/CP10 ASICs, which is where most of the throughput gain in a replacement comes from.
