Introduction to FGT_92D-v6-build0387-FORTINET.out

This firmware update provides essential security patches and network stability improvements for FortiGate 92D series firewalls running FortiOS v6. Designed for small-to-medium business environments requiring reliable threat prevention, build0387 resolves 7 CVEs while optimizing resource utilization for bandwidth-intensive applications.

Exclusively compatible with 92D hardware models (FG-92D), this Q3 2024 release maintains backward compatibility with FortiOS 6.4.x configurations. IT administrators managing retail or remote office networks will benefit from its enhanced deep packet inspection (DPI) efficiency and improved 4G failover logic.
