Fortigate firewall Site-toSite IPsec VPN licensing

Hello, 

I'm planning to deploy a Fortigate-3000D Firewall that will  support around 40 concurrent Site-to-Site IPsec VPNs.

 

The question is to know whether an special license is required for these 40 concurrent VPNs.

 

I've been unable to find a right information for this particular issue.

Best regards.

Albert.

You do not need any license to use site to site AKA gateway to gateway VPN tunnels. There is a limit to performance based on the hardware, but the 3000D appears to be rated for a maximum of 40,000 tunnels with up to 50Gbps total throughput. It should be more than capable of handling 40 tunnels.
