hi

 

I am planning to configure the following setup, but I would like to know which of the latest FortiGate models currently available in the product lineup support internal hardware switches.

I found information about older models in the following link, but I would like to know the support status for internal hardware switches on the latest models.
I also checked the "Feature/Platform Matrix" mentioned in the link, but there is no "Hardware Switch" section in the materials from v7.2.1 and later, so I am unsure which models support internal hardware switches.
