Watch NowLAN edge equipment from Fortinet converges networking and security into a secure, simple-to-manage architecture with a single focal point for management and configuration. Through Secure Networking, Fortinet enables a secure LAN without the need for costly and complex licensing schemes.
Watch Now
Fortinet Ethernet switches can be managed standalone or through FortiOS via the FortiLink protocol. Centralized management of FortiOS can be implemented on-premises or in the cloud through FortiGate or FortiManager. This simplifies deployment and provisioning of FortiSwitch with zero-touch auto-discovery, provisioning, and security policy assignment. FortiSwitch can be managed without a FortiGate via FortiSwitch Manager on-premises, and in the cloud via FortiLAN Cloud.

Fortinet recognized a Leader in the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure
Moor Insights & Strategy believes Fortinet is well positioned to deliver robust networking and security at scale cross-domain as a market innovator and leader. The combination of Fortinet’s FortiOS, next-generation firewalls (NGFWs), network access points (APs), and switches, all of which can be managed through a single fabric and management console with robust security features, is compelling.
Looking for these elements of built in intelligence in the systems they deploy can help IT teams deal with Digital Acceleration.
Services and capabilities at the branch continue to expand with rapid adoption of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, Softwareas- a-Service (SaaS) applications, and voice/video tools.
The local area network edge (LAN edge) is one of the most challenging vectors to secure. There are a multitude of different users and devices that connect, plus copious amounts of data that all need to be protected. Add to that the growing number of inherently unsecure devices accessing the network as Internet-of-Things (IoT) deployments rise, and an enticing opportunity for attackers is created.
Secure SD-Branch consolidates the access layer within a secure platform that provides visibility and security to the network and all devices that connect to it.
Introducing FortiSwitch 600 and 2000—expanding Fortinet’s secure, simplified, and scalable switching portfolio. These latest additions to our secure connectivity platform provide intelligent, scalable connectivity with seamless AI-powered security integrations to the modern campus.
Extend the security of Secure SD-WAN to the enterprise branch network.
Discussion of the challenges faced by today’s enterprise branches and how Fortinet SD-Branch addresses the WAN and Access edge.
Check out an overview of Fortinet’s family of switches that is easy to manage, scalable, and comes with integrated security.
FortiOS 6.2, the latest version of Fortinet’s security operating system, powers the entire Security Fabric, helping customers reduce and manage the attack surface, prevent advanced threats, and reduce complexity.
Our experts will discuss how Fortinet LAN Edge solution offers simple yet pervasive security at the LAN, simplifying management while offering more features and less licensing compared to others.
See how Fortinet’s vision for the LAN edge can transform your wired and wireless infrastructure. Plus, join our experts to get the details of our LAN Edge portfolio, and to take a deep dive into the 2021 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired & Wireless LAN Infrastructure, and learn how we use AI and ML to deliver better networking.
Many SD-Branch solutions focus on consolidation and ease of management (both important characteristics), but the dependability of a branch’s network is directly related to its security. This means reliable security must be a top consideration of SD-Branch deployments.
Solving the top challenges facing enterprises today
In this paper, we’ll explain how network performance is impacted by whether or not certain security controls are in place.
With a secure connectivity approach, key networking and security components are fully integrated and managed via one operating system, ensuring end-to-end consistency and visibility. Many networking vendors falsely claim they can do this, so knowing what to look for is important.
For digital acceleration to succeed, networks must do more than they did in the past, which can increase risk
