Hi, 

 

Looking to upgrade my Vigor Draytek 3300 Router/Firewall to something a bit newer and secure. Im wondering if the Fortigate 60D has router capability?

 

I see there is 2 WAN ports and will be connecting to seperate lines into them but can I configure it to then setup network IP, Subnet & DNS?

 

Thanks

    Yes, 60D has full router functionality.

    Yes, it does support both static and dynamic routing, including BFD.

    Depending on your bandwidth requirement, and use for shaping, detection etc, I would consider getting a 60E instead. 60D really has some limitations when it comes to the CPU - which it has to use if you enable anything but plain routing (like BFD).

     

    If you are going to just run BGP and OSPF or static/policy-routing, you should get around 0.8-1Gbps.
