1. Introduction to FGT_140E_POE-v6.M-build2030-FORTINET.out Software

This firmware update delivers critical security patches and performance enhancements for FortiGate 140E Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) series appliances. Designed for branch office deployments, it addresses vulnerabilities disclosed in FortiOS 6.4.x while introducing SD-WAN optimizations for multi-service networks.

The build specifically supports FortiGate 140E-POE (FG-140E-POE) hardware running FortiOS 6.M.1+. Based on Fortinet’s Q2 2025 security update patterns observed in similar releases like FGT_600D-v6.M-build2030, this version likely corresponds to June 2025 maintenance updates with validation completed through FortiCare Labs.
