1. Introduction to FGT_100D-v6-build1010-FORTINET-6.2.2.out

This firmware package delivers FortiOS 6.2.2 for FortiGate 100D series firewalls, addressing critical security vulnerabilities while enhancing network performance. Released in Q4 2024 as part of Fortinet’s Extended Security Maintenance program, build 1010 specifically targets legacy network environments requiring long-term infrastructure stability.

The update maintains compatibility with 100D hardware variants (FG-100D, FG-100D-POE) operating in standalone or HA cluster configurations. Designed for enterprises using older FortiGate models beyond mainstream support cycles, it provides essential security patches without requiring hardware upgrades.
