​​Introduction to FGT_200E-v7.0.15.M-build0632-FORTINET.out​​

The ​​FGT_200E-v7.0.15.M-build0632-FORTINET.out​​ firmware is a maintenance release for Fortinet’s ​​FortiGate 200E​​ next-generation firewall, specifically optimized for enterprise edge networks and high-density branch deployments. As part of the FortiOS 7.0.15 series, this build focuses on addressing critical vulnerabilities while enhancing SD-WAN performance for hybrid cloud architectures.

The “M-build” designation confirms this version prioritizes mandatory security updates rather than feature additions. It maintains backward compatibility with FortiOS 7.0.x configurations but requires hardware validation for environments using deprecated 6.4.x policies.
