FORTIMANAGER™-400B CENTRALIZED MANAGEMENT APPLIANCE

FortiManager-400B appliances supply the tools needed to effectively manage mid-sized Fortinet deployments, from a few devices to hundreds of appliances and thousands of end-point security agents. The appliances provide centralized policy-based provisioning, configuration, and update management for FortiGate, FortiWiFi, and FortiMail appliances, as well as FortiClient end point security agents. They also offer end-to-end network monitoring for added control.

FortiManager delivers a lower TCO for Fortinet implementations by minimizing both initial deployment costs and ongoing operating expenses. Managers can control administrative access and simplify policy deployment using role-based administration to define user privileges for specific management domains and functions by aggregating collections of Fortinet appliances and agents into independent management domains.

FortiManager-400B Benefits

  • Support for up to 200 appliances or virtual domains (VDOMs) and 10,000 FortiClient agents from a single appliance for efficient command and control of mid-sized deployments.
  • Minimizes initial deployment and ongoing operating expenses of Fortinet security infrastructures.
  • Faster provisioning of new devices and agents and management of security policies across groups of assets reduces management burden and operational costs.
  • Detailed revision tracking increases visibility and auditing capabilities.
  • Easily manage complex mesh and star VPN environments.
  • Role as local distribution point for managed assets improves control over security and software updates.
  • Seamless integration with FortiAnalyzer appliances delivers in-depth discovery, analysis, prioritization and reporting of network security events.

Not only is the volume of email traffic rising but with it, the complexity of malware with the presence of blended threats combining spam, viruses, worms and spyware. To help ensure optimum service and security for our customers, we needed an effective multi-layered solution that combined antivirus, anti-spam and anti-spyware technologies in one appliance. FortiMail met our performance requirements while providing ease-of-use and management to our IT team which is essential as we do not have the time or resources to deploy and maintain separate point solutions.
