Security Fabric Integration through FortiLink

FortiLink is an innovative proprietary management protocol that allows our FortiGate Next Generation Firewall to seamlessly manage any FortiSwitch. FortiLink enables the FortiSwitch to become a logical extension of the FortiGate. It integrates it directly into the Fortinet Security Fabric. This management option reduces complexity and decreases management costs.

Network security and access layer functions are enabled and managed through a single console. FortiLink integration enables centralized policy management, including role-based access and control. This makes it easy to implement and manage. This control and manageability make FortiSwitch ideal for SD-Branch deployments.
