Duration 2 Days 12 CPD hours This course is intended for Networking and security professionals involved in the design, implementation, and administration of a network infrastructure using FortiGate appliances. Overview Analyze a FortiGate's route table. Route packets using policy-based and static routes for multi-path and load balanced deployments. Configure SD-WAN to load balance traffic between multiple WAN links effectively. Inspect traffic transparently, forwarding as a Layer 2 device. Divide FortiGate into two or more virtual devices, each operating as an independent FortiGate, by configuring virtual domains (VDOMs). Establish an IPsec VPN tunnel between two FortiGate appliances. Compare policy-based to route-based IPsec VPN. Implement a meshed or partially redundant VPN. Diagnose failed IKE exchanges. Offer Fortinet Single Sign On (FSSO) access to network services, integrated with Microsoft Active Directory. Deploy FortiGate devices as an HA cluster for fault tolerance and high performance. Deploy implicit and explicit proxy with firewall policies, authentication, and caching. Diagnose and correct common problems. In this two-day course, you will learn how to use advanced FortiGate networking and security. Course Outline Module 1. Routing Module 2. Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) Module 3.
