Its amazing output load balancing capacity and intelligent route optimization on multiple IP is excellent work, it makes easier to work on implementing all strategies such as cloud based uninterrupted smooth and constant connectivity. Easy setup, one time license and professional Fortinet support team really make it stand out among others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently can't be integrate with Cisco AD-VPN, may be updated in future, as per my experience most of the time it doesn't have any other negativity, some minor troubleshooting required, overall it is an excellent tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It comes with security and SD-WAN in one single box Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SD-WAN management is poor as compared to other products Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The configuration of the SD-WAN option by the fortigate manufacturer has helped us to carry out load balances of the contracted service providers. The internet services with bad administration could have sectors of the company where the internet service does not work and for other functions in the correct way. This failure is due to the fact that only one service provider is being used more than the other, this makes the service look degraded. With the activation of the SD-WAN option, the service providers carry out load balances, this means that category of pages or certain services are distributed to the two or number of connected providers. This improves internet browsing since it is distributed distributed the internet of the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The application of the SD-WAN is very simple, the selection of the interfaces that will be part of the SD-WAN is made and priorities are configured through priority policies such as messaging services, downloading live videos among others, this will give as it turns out that the options that match the

The policies will be distributed by the contracted service providers and the contracted bandwidth will be used to the maximum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The integration of SD-WAN within Fortiwan firewalls is a monumental advantage over other firewalls that do not have this feature. Although it is a small sample of the meaning SD-WAN, it conforms to the network requirements and to preserve the network infrastructure.

SD-WAN works by adding two ISP's of preferable the same bandwidth and playing with the load balancing algorithms. Fortigate SD-WAN supports the algorithms by volume, session, spillover, source ip and destination-source ip. Simply choose the algorithm that best suits your needs, indicate the parameters either weight or threshold for SD-WAN to perform its magic. With this, you do not have active SD-WAN, now you have to create the status check to guarantee the health of each ISP and the lost packets. In addition to indicating the health of each link you have to parameterize the rules that is nothing more than a policy where you are going to force an origin to go specifically for an ISP.

In addition to creating this optional policy to force a specific traffic you also have to create the conventional UTM filtering policies but the SD-WAN interface with the participating ISPs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I noticed that the sessions remain active even so an ISP that gives you dynamic address loses communication with the provider, that is, I have an ISP called CANTV which delivers its services by ADSL modem and it gives you an IP dynamically, every certain time that ip expires and changes for another. When that renewal occurs, the sessions that were going out by that ISP do not die but are hung, forcing that manually have to close the connections for that ISP so that the corresponding outputs are made.

Service providers provide their services for contracted bandwidth, when it comes to a company can have up to three service providers contracted to have backup internet links, one of the best tools to manage it is the function of SD- WAN of the equiopo fortigate of the fortinet manufacturer. The function of SD-WAN is a function that allows us to have a load balancing so that the contracted service providers are not used one more than the other so the configuration of the SD-WAN works so that the pages are classified or services that have Internet output from the Internet by the providers that the adminitraor wants in this way, the bandwidth is conserved so that all the users of the system enjoy the same bandwidth for each user.

The configuration of the SD-WAN function is very simple, simply the administrator selects the ports configured as an internet connection, then validates the services that are operative through the option SD-WAN check status, the bandwidth that is being consumed is displayed, then, by means of navigation policies, the pages or services are selected from the internet by the providers selected by the provider. this function is very easy to monitor and manage and we are given consumption graphs where you can see if the bandwidth consumption is correct or you need to adjust it. At the moment we have no negative complaints about the SD-WAN functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fortigate equipment provided by the Fortinet provider includes the option of SD-WAN that works to make a balance load of Internet service providers, making navigation policies by selecting and configuring the pages by categories or in a specific way so that they exit through a service provider in specific or can also be configured by route cost so that the SD-WAN makes the balancing automatically. This is useful for not consuming excessive bandwidth of contracted providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In the priority navigation policies, the fortinet sometimes rolls disproportionately because the fortigate analyzes the states of the link and not bandwidth and occasionally performs a bad load balancing when distributing the packets with a provider. sercvicio, but outside of this is a tool and a very useful function for administrators of these firewall equipment.

In the company Serfiprima C.A. we apply SD-WAN in the fortigate to implement the distribution of bandwidth of the internet service providers, when you have more than your internet service providers you configure SD to balance the bandwidth of both providers to guarantee a better navigation experience or that one provider does not conduct much more bandwidth than the other provider.

The function of the SD-WAN configuration has not affected us neither the configuration nor the functioning of it. It works from the day of implementation until today. It is a function that any network administrator must perform in order to maintain the correct balance of the bandwidth for the company's networks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In the company Seguros Piramide C.A. we have more than one internet service provider, for this case the SD-WAN function provided by the fortinet manufacturer was implemented. SD-WAN could be seen as an internet load balancer where mediators can configure that each page have Internet access by a provider and other pages of higher consumption by the other provider, this configuration is done by all the company's personnel You can enjoy the correct internet service with a correct load balancing in the business network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Realizing this configuration in the fortinet equipment I have not had any problems at the time of balancing, in fact fortinet gives us a percentage of bandwidth consumption by the providers that see that this load balancing is actually present in the configuration. It is very useful configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
