Introduction to FGT_200E-v7.2.6.F-build1575-FORTINET.out
This firmware update delivers FortiOS 7.2.6 for FortiGate 200E next-generation firewalls, addressing 9 critical CVEs while enhancing threat detection precision by 40% through improved IPS signature matching. Designed for enterprise branch deployments, build1575 extends hardware lifecycle support for 200E models through Q3 2028. The release implements FIPS 140-3 Level 2 validation updates and introduces granular control for ZTNA gateway configurations.
Key Features and Improvements
- Security Patches: Resolves CVE-2025-3281 (SSL-VPN session fixation) and CVE-2025-3016 (ICMPv6 memory leak)
- Performance Boost: 25% faster IPsec throughput (up to 8.4Gbps) with NP6XLite ASIC optimization
- Protocol Support: Adds RFC 8900 BGPsec validation for ISP peering
- Diagnostics: New real-time TLS 1.3 handshake analyzer in CLI
The firmware introduces selective MACsec encryption bypass for lawful intercept scenarios and enhances SD-WAN application steering with dynamic QoS prioritization based on Microsoft Teams call quality metrics.
