protect your applications and network without affecting availability or performance. 
The FortiGate-200B series provides comprehensive threat protection with Fortinet’s 
unmatched range of enterprise-grade security technologies. It delivers firewall, 
VPN (IPSec and SSL), intrusion prevention, antivirus/antispyware, antispam, and 
web filtering technologies The platforms also provides application control, data loss 
prevention, dynamic routing for IPv4 and IPv6, end point NAC, and SSL-encrypted 
traffic inspection. With no per-user pricing, you can deploy the specific technologies 
you need for your unique environment.  
Wireless LAN Support 
The FortiGate-200B series allows you to manage all of your security policies for 
both your wired and wireless networks from a single platform. Both models can act 
as wireless controllers for FortiAP wireless access points (WAPs). The FortiGate-
200B-POE also delivers Power Over Ethernet (POE) for up to 8 WAPs. Consolidating 
all network traffic through the FortiGate-200B series enables you to increase your 
network visibility and improve policy compliance while eliminating the need to 
manage a separate WLAN network. 
Fortinet Storage Module
The FortiGate-200B series also includes a Fortinet Storage Module (FSM) bay. The 
optional FSM provides disk-based storage for you to archive content locally for policy 
compliance. Alternately, you can use the FSM to enable WAN optimization, which 
improves network performance while reducing your costs.

FortiASIC purpose-built processors ensure that your security countermeasures 
will not become a network bottleneck. The FortiASIC CP6 processor delivers 
acceleration for encryption/decryption features, including IPSec VPN and SSL 
inspection.  The FortiASIC NP2 processor delivers firewall and VPN throughput at 
switching speeds by performing high-speed processing of network flows.
