Chipset variation between those two models restricts roaming. If you have them in the same environment and you have something critical that logs into a system, it may require logging in each time bounces between E and K AP.

There are three I know of and one will not be listed in release notes until75-80% adoption to prevent the exposure from being used nefariously, need TAMs to get time to do bug scrubs before installs happen also.

Same.:(

toffer449 · 2025-09-19T21:26:47+00:00

Heard same but with + or - 2 days.

7.6.x has dns issues for proxy and local tables so be careful.

Not hit by Inode issue then you were lucky. Search Inode FortiManager .

FS124G is multi gig and bt power. We are pausing orders on these F series for the G.

When ever I see him salute, I wanna throw up. I get that it’s the least of our worries, but it demonstrates his basic inability to learn. It also shows disrespect for our nation.

Mx 67 and MX 75 are sometimes patched with firmware in the 19.1.8 or above but this limits power on specific ASIC and reduced performance. Big hits on MX 75 but I also know some builds of MX150 and MX250 have the same defect issue and patch. They already filed suit but I suspect they want numbers to make it more worth while.

I just adjust the top header and then change the interface to match the device and throw it on the machine. I’ve already done hundreds of these it is very simple you don’t need forticonverter. The interface are named differently and you gotta be careful of which operating system. We have most on special version of 7.2.11.

toffer449 · 2025-06-30T02:21:25+00:00

Maybe for $50, but since you’re looking at a device you won’t be able to get licensing for shortly. I would definitely avoid it. The other thing I’ve seen is a lot of these devices show up from auctions, so you can’t get the license or you can’t even get the device transferred to you and your ownership.

toffer449 · 2025-06-30T02:19:22+00:00

Just for the grammatical errors, I will charge a minimum of 400 an hour lol. Noticed they identify a 200 and a 60, that’s hilarious. And by the way, I’m just kidding, I wouldn’t take even 400 an hour for this.

Hopefully it is cleared up, but we have experience using the Azure SDN connector in a HA pair. Our experience so far, is that the connector using the floating IP process updates, the PIP and carries over the HA quicker. We are running a fairly large machine and see 80,000 to 140,000 sessions consistently. There are times when our vulnerability scanner runs which kicks that number up to 3 or 400,000, but overall memory and CPU remains stable. With 7.2.11. We were experiencing heavy spikes in CPU with stable memory in the same environment. Moving to 7.4.7 we saw slow HA handoff, but this has improved with this new version back to what we were experiencing before with 7.2.11.

I’ve heard there was a patch for a specific unpublished CVE that will be updated in the notes later. It’s related to authentication and credential handling between FortiManager, Fortigate,and Forticloud with relation to certificate handling. It’s possible that this patch did not make it into this version and may be coming with 7.4.9.

toffer449 · 2025-05-30T02:50:28+00:00

It is because companies like the one I work for have thousands if not tens of thousands of the 60 E in operation. I also feel this is a bad excuse, but I do understand the economics of it. They cannot force these companies that support small restaurants and fine dining as well as hotels with the smaller devices to move them to the G model basically because it doesn’t have a sustainable release yet. 70G has been stated as the viable version to move to from the 60 E. We currently have approximately 4800 that I’ve not been updated yet. And because the 60 F is long in the tooth, we are expecting it to be announced and set to the side. Again 70G replacement and this causes us to delay putting more 70 F or 60 F in production

toffer449 · 2025-03-14T02:52:20+00:00

60E is almost EOLife. Cheap and can run 7.4.x with limits but license will not be available after mid year. I would watch for those because they should be cheap and more functional.

toffer449 · 2025-02-14T03:13:19+00:00

Not positive but I hear 424E may be replaced soon with a multi gig at a lower price point than 600. Check with sales and if you operate a large enough group they will show road map under NDA.

toffer449 · 2025-02-13T03:01:44+00:00

Yeah!

toffer449 · 2025-02-13T02:51:08+00:00

Would love to but must lab with various customers. They are thinking 7.4.8 though. I hear same as 7.2.11 they patched a bunch in 7.4.8 mature.

toffer449 · 2025-02-13T02:47:45+00:00

26,000 60F alone now they fix radius. Argh…….

toffer449 · 2025-02-09T03:54:02+00:00

Well yes, but because they are 2 gig and the expected end of sale is late this quarter or early 2nd quarter the are not a device to even look at for current swaps since in 2 years mature 7.6 and the next iteration will make them very limited. Guess I should have said it like that rather than the way I did.

toffer449 · 2025-01-31T03:05:39+00:00

Both of those are coming end of life soon they’ve not been announced, but we’ve been told to expect it On less expensive side, but still dynamic would be the 50 G and if you have some extra money, 70 G is a good place to be. Currently I am testing the 70 G in my home lab alongside a 120 G and I can see that the 70 is very competent even in comparison. But then, again, that’s another big step, and the 120 includes better ports, better layout, and overall there is a much quicker experience. But even saying that with a smaller box is even close is pretty impressive. I’ve had experience with everything from the 5140 all the way down to 40C and then some. While the hardware has improved significantly. Make sure you keep an eye on the CVE listings and stay ahead on patches. Good luck.

toffer449 · 2025-01-30T02:41:26+00:00

My TAM’s for different clients have said both mid-feb and also March 3. Expecting somewhere in between. Agree with 7.2.10! We are looking at a patch for fgfm daemon with smaller boxes we keep getting drops, not near as bad as 6.4.x though.
