Hello! Welcome to the second lesson of the Fortinet Getting Started course. If you are not yet familiar with the course, I recommend watching the — it outlines the main objectives and structure of the course. This lesson is purely theoretical, but it contains a wealth of useful information:
- A brief overview of the Fortinet Security Fabric concept and its products;
- The capabilities of the FortiGate firewall;
- Information about certification from FSTEC;
- An overview of the FortiGate product line;
- Information about management and operational modes of the device;
A link to the video is below.
In planning this lesson, I had several goals — first, I wanted to systematize information about the Security Fabric concept to make it easier for those who are just starting their journey with Fortinet to navigate the company's product portfolio. Secondly, I aimed to introduce listeners to the core functionality of the FortiGate firewall and discuss its features within a short lesson. Whether I succeeded or not is up to you to decide :)
In the next lesson, we will set up a layout for future lab work. To not miss it, keep an eye on updates on the following channels:
