Hi Spiceworkers !

Just wondering how some of you have hands on practice on Fortigate Firewall. as my understanding, Fortigare firewall without the addon bundle package is just a plain firewall. please do share.

Yes. It is indeed a firewall. all utm functionality is in licensing. but as a firewall, it is pretty good.

True it is all licensing based.

Just be careful not to undersize your unit if you are going to use ALL of the features they offer.

I have worked with Sonicwall and Fortinet most of my career, and they both are subscription based next gen firewalls.
