Hello,

 

I'm in charge for a new VPN projet between with our Headquarter and some branch office.

For one of our branch office, I have 10 users, but 4 WAN, 2 FTTH(fail over), one 4G and 1 SDSL for VoIP, and I want to connect my ERPbox who manage the printers in my ERP who is hosting in a datacenter. So, in the future I have 5 WAN to manage with the fortigate.

 

Someone can ensure that the Fortigate 60E it's OK for 5 WAN ?

 

Regards,

    The ports on a Fortigate are only labelled for convenience. There is no restriction on usage.

    On a FG-60E, move single ports out of the (default) 'internal' switch to be able to use them for WAN connections.
