FortiAPs are a range of secure WLAN Access Points designed for indoor, outdoor, and remote use, all managed and secured directly from the familiar FortiGate web interface. This product demo lets you see just how simple it is to configure SSIDs and AP Profiles, as well as view the built-in monitoring and reporting capabilities.
Deploying new branches can be expensive, difficult, and time consuming. The same benefits offered in our Secure SD-WAN solution can apply to wireless access with FortiAPs integrated directly with FortiOS via our FortiLink protocol, creating a Secure SD-Branch.
Local-area networks in campuses are dynamic and complex, making them challenging to secure and manage. By leveraging FortiGate as a LAN controller, IT can reduce workload with a single management interface that converges both networking and security.
Extending corporate network access to remote workers can put a burden on IT teams that must manage remote sites they have no control over. By deploying FortiAPs as remote APs, the same secure network that employees use in the office can be extended to their homes.
Security Fabric Integration
Automated response to compromised devices
Zero-touch deployment
Simplified deployment and capacity expansion
Scalability from 1 to 10,000 APs
