Introduction to FWB_2000F-v700-build0151-FORTINET.out

The ​​FWB_2000F-v700-build0151-FORTINET.out​​ firmware package delivers mission-critical security enhancements for Fortinet’s 2000F-series next-generation firewalls, designed for enterprises requiring hyperscale threat prevention and advanced routing capabilities. Released on March 18, 2025, this build (v7.0.0 build 151) introduces architectural optimizations for FortiOS 7.4 while maintaining backward compatibility with FortiOS 7.0+ deployments. Specifically engineered for FortiGate 2000F, 2010F, and 2040F models, it addresses critical vulnerabilities while optimizing NP7 ASIC utilization for 800Gbps threat inspection throughput.
