Notes

All performance figures are stated by Fortinet as maximums and vary with system configuration. Every model in the 60F series shares the same throughput, session and VPN figures.

IPS, application control, NGFW and threat protection figures are measured with logging enabled. NGFW is firewall, IPS and application control; threat protection adds malware protection.

IPsec VPN performance is tested with AES256-SHA256. SSL inspection figures are an average across HTTPS cipher suites.

Fortinet counts the two FortiLink ports among the internal ports in its ordering description, which is why it reads 7 internal where the specifications table reads 5 plus 2 FortiLink. Both describe the same ten RJ45 ports.

Part numbers are Fortinet catalogue SKUs listed for reference. Availability, term and lead time are confirmed at quote.

Overview

FortiGate 61F

The FortiGate 60F with a 128 GB SSD fitted, for local log retention at a site that cannot ship every event off-box.

What the 61F Adds

The 61F is the 60F with a 128 GB SSD fitted. That storage lets the appliance keep logs locally rather than shipping every event off-box - useful when the WAN is the thing you are troubleshooting, when a retention requirement has to be met on site, or when FortiAnalyzer is not part of the deployment. Throughput, ports and session capacity are identical to the 60F.

Converged Next-Generation Firewall and SD-WAN

The FortiGate 60F series delivers firewalling, SD-WAN and full threat inspection from a fanless desktop appliance, running on FortiOS so the networking and the security are configured in one place. Ten gigabit ports, 10 Gbps of firewall throughput and 5,000 policies put it a clear step above the 50G, in the same desk-friendly footprint.

Built on the Fortinet Security Fabric

As a cornerstone of the Fortinet Security Fabric, the FortiGate NGFW works with FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services to deliver coordinated, automated threat protection in real time. The 60F is certified by ICSA Labs for firewall, IPsec, IPS, antivirus and SSL-VPN, manages up to 16 FortiSwitches and 64 FortiAPs, and is administered centrally from FortiManager.
