FortiSwitch

FortiSwitch

While many users will connect to your network over WiFi, some devices still require wired connections, such as VoIP phones, POS terminals, security cameras, printers, TVs, and desktops. With the variety of devices and security needs, it is necessary to segment these devices in different subnets and VLANs. The built-in NAC features on the FortiGate switch controller enable you to segment the devices and define rules for segmenting your devices at a very granular level.

  • Retail branch
    • PoE for FortiAP, security cameras, and possibly wired phones
    • Integrated segmentation for transactions (for example, for PCIDSS compliance), guest traffic (for example, public WiFi), operations (for example, manager PC, security cameras, phone)
  • Office branch
    • Wired connections for desktop endpoints
    • PoE for security cameras, phones, FortiAP
    • Integrated segmentation for transactions (for example, for PCIDSS compliance), guest traffic (for example, public WiFi), operations (for example, manager PC, security cameras, phone)
    • Network Access Control for BYoD and IoT devices that leverage device detection
