FortiGate3000D fast path architecture

The FortiGate-3000D features 16 front panel SFP+ 10Gb interfaces connected to two NP6 processors through an

Integrated Switch Fabirc (ISF). The FortiGate-3000D has the following fastpath architecture:

l  8 SFP+ 10Gb interfaces, port1 through port8 share connections to the first NP6 processor (np6_0).

l  8 SFP+ 10Gb interfaces, port9 through port16 share connections to the second NP6 processor (np6_1).

FortiGate1500DT fast path architecture

The FortiGate-1500DT features two NP6 processors both connected to an integrated switch fabric. The FortiGate-1500DT has the same hardware configuration as the FortiGate-1500D, but with the addition of newer CPUs and DPDK technology that improves IPS performance.

The FortiGate-1500DT includes the following interfaces and NP6 processors:

  • Eight SFP 1Gb interfaces (port1-port8), eight RJ-45 Ethernet ports (port17-24) and four SFP+ 10Gb interfaces (port33-port36) share connections to the first NP6 processor.
  • Eight SFP 1Gb interfaces (port9-port16), eight RJ-45 Ethernet ports (port25-32) and four SFP+ 10Gb interfaces (port37-port40) share connections to the second NP6 processor.

The FortiGate-900D includes two NP6 processors that are not connected by an integrated switch fabric (ISF). Without an ISF, traffic through a FortiGate-900D could experience lower latency than traffic through similar hardware with an ISF. The NP6 processors are connected to network interfaces as follows:

Because the FortiGate-900D does not have an ISF you cannot create Link Aggreg- ation Groups (LAGs) that include interfaces connected to both NP6 processors.

  • Eight 1Gb SFP interfaces (port17-port24), eight 1Gb RJ-45 Ethernet interfaces (port25-32) and one 10Gb SFP+ interface (portB) share connections to the first NP6 processor.
  • Eight 1Gb SFP interfaces (port1-port8), eight RJ-45 Ethernet interfaces (port9-16) and one 10Gb SFP+ interface (portA) share connections to the second NP6 processor.
