OVERVIEW

What the FortiGate 600E is for

The FortiGate 600E is a legacy 1U enterprise next-generation firewall from Fortinet's 600E series. Built on the NP6 and CP9 security processors, it delivers 36 Gbps of firewall throughput, 9.5 Gbps NGFW, 7 Gbps of threat protection and 8,000,000 concurrent sessions over eight GE RJ45 ports, eight GE SFP slots and two 10 GE SFP+ slots. The 600E has reached end of sale, so the hardware is winding down; you can still renew its FortiGuard security services and FortiCare support to keep an installed unit protected, using the renewal bundles below.

When you are ready to replace it, the currently-shipping FortiGate 600F is the direct successor — a full-generation jump in firewall throughput, threat protection and 10/25 GE interface speeds in the same 1U class — and the FortiGate 900G steps up further with 16 million sessions and higher 10/25 GE density. See the upgrade path comparison below.

FAQ

FortiGate 600E - frequently asked questions

The FortiGate 600E (FG-600E) has reached end of sale and the hardware is winding down. You can still renew FortiGuard security services and FortiCare support for an installed unit while it is in its renewal window, and we can quote the current FortiGate 600F as a direct replacement.

The FortiGate 600F is the direct, currently-shipping replacement — a full-generation jump in firewall throughput and threat protection with 10/25 GE interfaces in the same 1U class. For more sessions and density, step up to the FortiGate 900G.

Yes, while the model is in its renewal window. Choose a FortiGuard + FortiCare renewal bundle (Enterprise, UTP or ATP) above, or renew individual FortiGuard services and FortiCare support. Licensing is delivered electronically worldwide.

The 600E delivers 36 Gbps firewall throughput, 10 Gbps IPS, 9.5 Gbps NGFW, 7 Gbps threat protection and 20 Gbps IPsec VPN, with 8,000,000 concurrent sessions and 450,000 new sessions per second, accelerated by Fortinet’s NP6 and CP9 security processors, over eight GE ports, eight GE SFP slots and two 10 GE SFP+ slots.

The FortiGate 600E has no onboard storage. The 601E in the same series adds 2x 240 GB SSDs for local logging and reporting; ports and security performance are identical to the 600E.
