WWT and Fortinet help clients increase security with reduced complexity
WWT's Advanced Technology Center (ATC) supports the latest in Fortinet solutions. Within the ATC, you can get hands-on access to the following environments:
Fortinet LAN Edge
The local-area network edge (LAN) offers one of the broadest attack surfaces in a company's network and one of the most challenging vectors to secure. Securing it is critical to the success of every network. To cut down complexity, while effectively delivering secure network access, a solution is needed that includes:
- Integrated security
- Simplicity
- Lower cost of ownership
LAN Edge Featured Products
- FortiSwitch – Fortinet Secure Ethernet Switches
- FortiAP – Wireless Access Points (APs)
Design concept and considerations
The topology presented in this deployment guide is a baseline network to deploy a secure LAN edge as quickly as possible. The solution can be scaled out to accommodate more users on a site by adding additional FortiSwitch units, FortiAP units and using a higher model FortiGate device. Redundancy can be improved by adding an additional FortiGate device into an HA cluster, provisioning a full-mesh switch network and using aggregate links for connections.
