Hi,

 

I noticed in the release notes new products :

FortiFirewall : FFW-3980E, FFW-4200F, FFW-4400F, FFW-VM64, FFW-VM64-KVM

 

What is the difference between FGT and FFW ?

 

Regards

 

Lucas

Dear hklb,

 

FGT and FFW are exactly similar. But the difference is on the licensing side.

 

FFW are generally used for ISP or telco customer where they are concerned more on the  bandwidth. FFW licensing is based on the throughput like 10G,100G and so on and also based on features, whereas FGT are hardware bundle.
