Introduction to FGT_5001D-v6.M-build2000-FORTINET-6.4.11.out
This enterprise-class firmware delivers FortiOS 6.4.11 for the FortiGate 5001D chassis, addressing 19 CVEs while optimizing threat detection throughput by 35% through NP7 security processor enhancements. Released in Q1 2025, build2000 introduces hardware-accelerated TLS 1.3 decryption at 100Gbps line rate, making it ideal for hyperscale data center deployments requiring advanced security inspection capabilities.
Designed specifically for the FG-5001D series security gateway, this update supports 400Gbps firewall throughput with full UTM inspection enabled. The build2000 designation confirms interoperability with FortiManager 7.4.3+ for centralized policy orchestration and FortiAnalyzer 7.2.8+ for real-time log analysis across distributed environments.
