STORAGE OPTIONS FOR FORTINET HARDWARE PLATFORMS

Fortinet all-in-one storage modules extend the capabilities of Fortinet platforms. With FortiGate® multi-threat security platforms, the modules provide local storage facilities for security and system events. In addition, they can enable the WAN optimization feature available in FortiOS™ software version 4.0 or later1, which works to accelerate applications commonly affected by slower network connections.

The Fortinet ASM-S08 module is a single-width Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) form-factor option. The ASM-S08 module features an 80 GB commercial-grade hard disk drive (HDD).

The Fortinet FSM-064 module is a single-width Fortinet Storage Module (FSM) form-factor option. The FSM-064 module features a 64 GB Solid State Drive (SSD).

Key Features and Benefits

  • Local Security and System Event Logging1 - Allows smaller deployments or isolated systems to benefit from increased log storage capacity without the use of a FortiAnalyzer appliance or other external logging system.
  • FortiOS WAN Optimization1 - Accelerates applications traversing slower network connections. The combination of multi-threat security, traffic optimization, and VPN technologies provides cleaned, accelerated, and secured communications.
  • Modular Form Factor - Empowers customers with the ability to build the ideal system configuration, or upgrade an existing system2.
  • FortiOS Integration - Lowers operational burden through total integration of optional module, base system hardware, and operating system software.
