The 4201F is a 3RU chassis appliance with eight 100GE QSFP28 ports, sixteen 25GE SFP28 slots, redundant hot-swappable power and 2x 1.92 TB onboard SSD.
The FortiGate 4201F is a current-generation model, fully supported with active FortiGuard and FortiCare subscriptions available for 1, 3, and 5-year terms.
Performance is identical — both run on the same NP7 + CP9 platform. The FortiGate 4201F adds 2x 1.92 TB onboard SSD storage for local logging and reporting; the 4200F has no onboard storage. Choose the 4201F when you want on-box logs without a dedicated FortiAnalyzer.
Both are NP7 + CP9 chassis-class firewalls. The 4400F is the higher tier: 1.15 Tbps firewall and 94 Gbps IPS with 12x 100GE QSFP28 ports in a 4RU chassis, versus the 4201F’s 800 Gbps firewall, 52 Gbps IPS, 8x 100GE ports and 2x 1.92 TB onboard SSD in 3RU.
The optional Hyperscale Firewall license unlocks additional NP7 acceleration, raising concurrent sessions from 210 million to 450 million and new sessions/second from 1 million to 7 million. It is a perpetual license for carrier and hyperscale deployments that need maximum session scale.
The FortiGate 4201F uses Fortinet’s NP7 network processor for firewall and VPN acceleration, and the CP9 content processor for IPS, SSL inspection, and application control. Both ASICs are custom silicon designed by Fortinet.
