Introduction to FGT_2201E-v6.M-build2000-FORTINET-6.4.11.out

This enterprise-grade firmware delivers FortiOS 6.4.11 for the FortiGate 2201E series, addressing 23 CVEs while enhancing threat detection performance by 40% through NP7 security processor optimization. Released in Q1 2025, build2000 introduces hardware-accelerated TLS 1.3 inspection and improved SD-WAN orchestration capabilities for multi-cloud environments.

Designed specifically for the FG-2201E chassis, this update supports 120Gbps firewall throughput with full UTM inspection enabled, making it ideal for large branch office deployments. The build2000 designation confirms compatibility with FortiManager 7.4.3+ for centralized policy management and FortiAnalyzer 7.2.8+ for log correlation.
