Introduction to FGT_3100D-v7.0.13.M-build0566-FORTINET.out

The ​​FGT_3100D-v7.0.13.M-build0566-FORTINET.out​​ firmware package delivers critical security hardening and performance optimizations for Fortinet’s enterprise-grade FortiGate 3100D next-generation firewall. Released under FortiOS 7.0’s Extended Support program in Q1 2025, this maintenance build addresses 14 documented vulnerabilities while enhancing threat prevention capabilities for high-throughput network environments.

Designed exclusively for FG-3100D hardware (revision 3.2+), this firmware extends lifecycle support through March 2029. It introduces backward-compatible improvements to ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) and SD-WAN orchestration protocols, ensuring seamless integration with FortiManager 7.6.6+ centralized management systems.

Key Features and Improvements

1. ​​Security Vulnerability Mitigation​​
