FortiGate NP4 architectures

This chapter shows the NP4 architecture for the all FortiGate units and modules that include NP4 processors.

 

FortiGate–600C

The FortiGate-600C features one NP4 processor. All the ports are connected to this NP4 over the Integrated Switch Fabric. Port1 and port2 are dual failopen redundant RJ-45 ports. Port3-port22 are RJ-45 ethernet ports, and there are four 1Gb SFP interface ports duplicating the port19-port22 connections.

 

FortiGate–800C

The FortiGate-800C features one NP4 processor. All the ports are connected to this NP4. Port1 and port2 are dual failopen redundant RJ-45 ports. Port3-port22 are RJ-45 ethernet ports, and there are eight 1Gb SFP interface ports duplicating the port15-18 and port19-port22 connections. There are also two 10Gb SFP+ ports, port23 and port24.

 

FortiGate–1000C

The FortiGate-1000C features one NP4 processor. All the ports are connected to this NP4. Port1 and port2 are dual failopen redundant RJ-45 ports. Port3-port22 are RJ-45 ethernet ports, and there are eight 1Gb SFP interface ports duplicating the port15-18 and port19-port22 connections. There are also two 10Gb SFP+ ports, port23 and port24.

 

FortiGate–1240B

The FortiGate-1240B features two NP4 processors:

• Port1 to port24 are 1Gb SFP interfaces connected to one NP4 processor.
• Port25 to port38 are RJ-45 ethernet ports, connected to the other NP4 processor.
• Port39 and port40 are not connected to an NP4 processor.

FortiGate–3040B

The FortiGate-3040B features two NP4 processors:

• The 10Gb interfaces, port1, port2, port3, port4, and the 1Gb interfaces, port9, port10, port11, port12, port13, share connections to one NP4 processor.
• The 10Gb interfaces, port5, port6, port7, port8, and the 1Gb interfaces, port14, port15, port16, port17, port18, share connections to the other NP4 processor.
