​​Introduction to FGT_3700D-v6-build1911-FORTINET.out Software​​

This firmware update delivers mission-critical security enhancements and SD-WAN performance optimizations for Fortinet’s flagship FortiGate 3700D Next-Generation Firewall. As part of FortiOS v6.4.6 maintenance releases (build 1911), it resolves 9 CVEs with CVSS scores ≥8.5 while introducing enterprise-grade traffic prioritization for hyperscale networks.

The FortiGate 3700D appliance supports 400 Gbps threat inspection throughput and 15 million concurrent sessions, making it ideal for carrier-grade infrastructure and hyperscale data centers. This update maintains backward compatibility with FortiManager v6.4.x management systems and introduces enhanced telemetry integration with FortiAnalyzer v7.4.x.
