The FortiGate 3701F Series is designed for organizations requiring a hyperscale security solution that integrates seamlessly into hybrid IT environments. By consolidating networking and security into a single platform, this firewall reduces complexity while offering deep visibility into applications, users, and threats. It supports a Hybrid Mesh Firewall architecture, weaving security deep into the data center and across distributed networks to protect any edge at any scale. The device is powered by Fortinet’s proprietary SPU technology, ensuring that critical security functions such as SSL inspection and threat protection do not become performance bottlenecks.

At the core of the FortiGate 3701F are the Network Processor 7 (NP7) and Content Processor 9 (CP9). The NP7 works in line with FortiOS to deliver hyperscale firewall capabilities, ultra-low latency, and accelerated session setup for demanding, high-throughput environments. The CP9 acts as a co-processor to offload resource-intensive tasks like SSL decryption and pattern matching. This model distinguishes itself with 2x 1.92TB of internal SSD storage, providing ample capacity for local logging and data retention, which is critical for compliance and in-depth forensic analysis.

High-Performance Protection for the Hybrid Enterprise

The FortiGate 3701F delivers converged networking and security with industry-leading throughput and integrated ZTNA enforcement to secure data centers and hybrid edges.

• Hyperscale Performance: Delivers up to 589 / 589 / 420 Gbps of firewall throughput and 140 million concurrent sessions, ensuring the network can handle massive traffic surges without latency.
• Integrated ZTNA: Integrated Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) enforcement controls, verifies, and facilitates user access to applications for consistent security across distributed networks.
• Onboard Storage: Includes dual 1.92TB SSDs for reliable local storage, supporting extensive logging and reporting requirements directly on the appliance.
• Advanced Threat Protection: AI/ML-powered security services help protect against ransomware, malware, and zero-day attacks with threat intelligence updates.
• Versatile Connectivity: Equipped with 400 GE QSFP-DD ports (also supporting 200 GE QSFP56, 100 GE QSFP28, and 40 GE QSFP+) to support high-bandwidth architectures and scalability.
• Dynamic Segmentation: Adapts to network topology to help prevent lateral movement of threats using VXLAN segmentation and Layer 4 firewall rules.
• Energy Efficient: Purpose-built SPU processors help improve power efficiency and reduce footprint while maintaining high performance.

• Data Center Security: Protects high-speed data center edges with ultra-low latency and hyperscale firewall capabilities.
• Hybrid Cloud Segmentation: Secures multi-cloud environments by bridging physical and virtual domains with consistent security policies.
• Latency-Sensitive Workloads: Ultra-low latency ports (ULL) help reduce network delays for environments where microsecond-level latency matters.
• Large Enterprise Gateways: Manages high volumes of encrypted traffic with SSL inspection and threat protection performance.
• Remote Workforce Security: Facilitates secure access for distributed users through IPsec VPN and integrated ZTNA enforcement.

• Firewall Throughput: 589 / 589 / 420 Gbps (IPv4 1518/512/64 byte UDP; IPv6 1518/512/86 byte UDP)
• Security Performance: IPS 86 Gbps; NGFW 80 Gbps; Threat Protection 75 Gbps
• VPN Performance: IPsec VPN 160 Gbps (512 byte); SSL-VPN 16 Gbps; 30,000 recommended concurrent SSL-VPN users (tunnel mode)
• SSL Inspection: 55 Gbps (IPS, avg. HTTPS); SSL inspection concurrent sessions 15 Million
• Network Interfaces: 4x 400GE QSFP-DD (supports 200GE/100GE/40GE), 18x 50GE SFP56, 4x ULL ports, 2x HA1/HA2 ports, 2x 10GE/GE RJ45 management
