Hi Hemin88,

 

Always use a mature version, the following article explain the differences between mature and feature.

Version 7.0.x, 6.4.x, 6.2.x are out of engineering support, avoid those version if possible.

Hi @Hemin88 ,

 

Without your FGT hardware model info, we can't provide appropriate recommendations. 

 

For example,  let's say, 7.0.16 is a stable firmware.  But your FGT model is 30E. There is no 7.0 image for FGT 30E at all.  Is FortiOS 7.0.16 a suitable recommendation for you in this case?

Regards,

Jerry
