Introduction to FGT_100E-v6-build1579-FORTINET.out

This firmware package delivers critical network infrastructure protection for FortiGate 100E series next-generation firewalls. Released in Q1 2025 under FortiOS 6.4.12, it resolves 15 security vulnerabilities identified in previous builds while maintaining backward compatibility with existing SD-WAN configurations. Designed specifically for small-to-medium enterprises, build1579 optimizes threat prevention throughput and enhances SSL inspection efficiency by 27% compared to version 6.4.11.

Compatible with FortiGate 100E hardware variants including 100E, 100E-3G4G, and 100E-POE models, this update addresses memory allocation errors reported in IPsec VPN implementations. The firmware supports hybrid mesh firewall deployments and integrates with Fortinet’s Security Fabric ecosystem.
