GPON support for FortiGates with SFP/SFP+ ports NEW

GPON support for FortiGates with SFP/SFP+ ports NEW

FortiGates with SFP/SFP+ ports support Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) transceivers, enabling the firewall to operate directly as an ONU (Optical Network Unit) and allowing deployment in fiber-based access networks. This allows customers transitioning from legacy DSL infrastructure to adopt widely used GPON technology, improving interoperability and easing migration.

Use the following diagnose commands:

Command

Description

diagnose gpon config loid [interface] [loid] [password]

Configure Logical Identifier (LOID) username and password.

diagnose gpon sysinfo [interface]

Show transceiver system information.

diagnose gpon state [interface]

Show SFP GPON connection state.

diagnose gpon traffic-stats [interface]

Show SFP GPON traffic statistics.

diagnose gpon reboot [interface]

Reboot transceiver.

To detect a GPON transceiver:
