Hi everyone,
I’m currently using a FortiGate 30E, which has an end-of-life support date until 2027-03-31. However, I've discovered that the latest version of FortiOS that supports this hardware is 6.2, and its end of support was on 2023-09-28.
Given this situation, I’m seeking advice on the best course of action to ensure continued security and functionality for my network. Specifically, I would like to know:
I appreciate any guidance or recommendations you can provide.
Thank you!

Ensure all security policies and configurations are up to date. Upgrading to a newer FortiGate model that supports the latest FortiOS versions is advisable for continued security and feature updates. For a better model, I would suggest you get advice from the sales team. Could be something in 60,80 or 100 series.
Hi@spoojary
Thanks for your response. Seeing that there is a 3 year time period between when the Fortigate 30e will reach it's end of support date (2027-03-31), and the latest FortiOS version that is available on this hardware is the version 6.2 (which it's end of support was 2023-09-28).
What will happen in this time frame concerning security patches or any vulnerabilities that may arise?
Thanks
