FortiSwitch™ Data Center Series
Secure, Simple, Scalable Ethernet Solution
FortiSwitch Data Center switches deliver a secure, simple,
scalable Ethernet solution with outstanding throughput,
resiliency, and scalability. Virtualization and cloud computing
have created dense high-bandwidth Ethernet networking
requirements. FortiSwitch Data Center switches meet these
challenges by providing a high-performance 10 GE, 40 GE, or
100 GE capable switching platform, with a low total cost of
ownership. Ideal for Top of Rack server or firewall aggregation
these switches are purpose-built to meet the needs of today’s
bandwidth-intensive environments.

Security Fabric Integration Through FortiLink
The FortiSwitch Data Center Series supports FortiGate management
through FortiLink, extending the Fortinet Security Fabric to the
Ethernet port level. This link allows the same policies configured
and applied to FortiGate interfaces to be applied to the FortiSwitch
Ethernet ports, reducing complexity and decreasing management
cost. With network security and access layer functions enabled and managed
through a single console, centralized policy management, including role-based
access and control, are easy to implement and manage. Users or devices can be
authenticated against the same database and have the same security policy applied
regardless of how or where they connect to the network.

DEPLOYMENT
Non FortiGate
FortiSwitch can be managed without a FortiGate in a
traditional stand-alone fashion with a native GUI and
CLI interface. FortiSwitch Manager offers stacking and
management at
scale with a network
design similar to a
FortiGate-managed
deployment. This
design supports up to
2500 FortiSwitches
but offers no traffic
inspection or Security
Fabric integration.
Lastly, RESTful API’s
offer additional
configuration and
management tools.
FortiGate
FortiGate management is accomplished through FortiLink,
an innovative proprietary management protocol that allows
our FortiGate security appliance to seamlessly manage any
FortiSwitch. FortiLink enables the FortiSwitch to become a
logical extension of the FortiGate, integrating it directly into
the Fortinet Security Fabric.
Deployment Overview
FortiSwitch is commonly managed and deployed through our FortiGate with FortiLink but can also be deployed and managed in
non-FortiGate environments.
