SD-WAN Central Template

From the Device Manager pane, you can now configure a central SD-WAN template, and then install the settings in the SD-WAN template to multiple FortiGates.

SD-WAN Monitoring

You can now centrally monitor SD-WAN performance:

  • Map View displays SD-WAN enabled devices on Google Map with color coded icons. Mouse over to view health performance statistics for each SD-WAN link member
  • Table View provides more granular information on each SD-WAN link member such as link status, applications performance and their bandwidth usage.

Export IPS and Application Information to a CSV File

You can export IPS or Application signature information to a CSV file from the Intrusion Prevention or Application Control profiles under the Object Configuration menu.

Export Device List to CSV

You can now export the device list table to a CSV file from the Device Manager > Device & Groups tab.

Find and Replace option is now available by right-clicking an object from the policy table. It finds all occurrences of the selected object and allows to replace one or multiple occurrences by one-click.
