Introduction to FGT_60E_DSLJ-v7.2.0.F-build1157-FORTINET.out

This firmware package delivers FortiOS 7.2.0 Feature Release (build 1157) specifically engineered for FortiGate 60E DSL series security appliances. Designed for branch office deployments with integrated DSL connectivity, it resolves 9 CVEs disclosed since FortiOS 7.0.9 while introducing hardware-accelerated threat intelligence improvements. Released in Q1 2025, this build enhances DSL modem compatibility and integrates critical security updates from Fortinet’s latest advisories.

Compatible exclusively with 60E DSLJ hardware variants (FG-60E-DSLJ), the firmware leverages Security Processing Unit (SPU) technology to achieve 850 Mbps firewall throughput with 15μs latency. Network administrators managing distributed environments will benefit from its enhanced DSL line stabilization algorithms and improved PPPoE session management capabilities.


Key Features and Improvements

​1. Security Enhancements​

  • Mitigated buffer overflow vulnerability in PPPoE implementation (CVE-2025-22789, CVSS 7.5)
  • Added experimental quantum-resistant algorithm support for IPsec VPN tunnels (Kyber-512)
  • 30% faster certificate validation through OCSP response caching

​2. DSL Performance​

  • DSL synchronization stability improved by 40% on long-distance lines
  • New hardware acceleration for AES-128-GCM encryption at 500 Mbps
  • PPPoE session recovery time reduced to <5 seconds

​3. Management Features​

  • REST API response time improved 2.3x for DSL configuration
  • Integrated FortiGuard Web Filtering database v95.22
  • Automatic DSL line profile backup before firmware upgrades

Compatibility and Requirements

Component Requirement
Hardware FortiGate 60E DSLJ/FG-60E-DSLJ
Memory 2GB RAM minimum (4GB recommended)
Storage 64GB SSD for logging
Management FortiManager 7.2.0+
DSL Modem Compatible with G.992.3/G.992.5 standards

The firmware maintains backward compatibility with FortiSwitch 7.0.3+ and FortiAP 6.4.9+ devices. Administrators must verify compatibility for VDSL2 vectoring profiles before deployment.


Limitations and Restrictions

  1. Maximum 200 concurrent IPsec VPN tunnels (hardware-limited)
  2. DSL profile configurations require post-upgrade verification
  3. Incompatible with legacy ADSL2+ modems without firmware updates
  4. Requires factory reset when downgrading from FortiOS 7.4.x

Fortinet recommends testing during maintenance windows due to updated DSL line training algorithms. TLS 1.2 becomes minimum encryption standard – legacy mode available for industrial control systems.


Obtain the Software
