Hi networking!

Can someone recommend an appliance that will replace my FortiWAN? This appliance load balances multiple ISP’s together for our data center. It also is a split brain dns. We don’t use too many of its features, so the new appliance can be pretty basic.

A straight swap is FortiADC. It has outbound load-balancing as well as DNS-based inbound load balancing features. However, I am unsure about the split brain DNS configured on FWAN. Could you please elaborate more on it?

if the need of the customer is plainly load balance and failover of internet connection plus steering of applications then I could simply offer FortiGate as replacement for ageing SDWAN.
