​Introduction to FGT_400D-v6-build1343-FORTINET.out​

This firmware update delivers critical security patches and operational optimizations for FortiGate 400D next-generation firewalls operating on FortiOS v6.x. Designed for enterprise-grade network environments, build 1343 addresses identified vulnerabilities in SSL/TLS protocol implementations while enhancing threat prevention capabilities for high-throughput networks.

Exclusively compatible with FortiGate 400D hardware (P/N FG-400D), this release supports organizations requiring 10Gbps-class firewall throughput with 24x GE RJ45 ports and 4x 10G SFP+ uplinks. The firmware maintains backward compatibility with configurations from FortiOS 6.2.0 through 6.4.14, enabling seamless policy migration during upgrades.

​Release Date​​: March 15, 2025


​Critical Security & Infrastructure Enhancements​
