The FortiGate-5001B front panel 10-gigabit interfaces and fabric backplane interfaces
also provide NP4-accelerated network processing for eligible traffic passing through
these interfaces.
You can also configure two or more FortiGate-5001B boards to create a high availability
(HA) cluster using the base or fabric backplane interfaces for HA heartbeat
communication through the chassis backplane, leaving front panel interfaces available
for network connections.
In most cases the base backplane interfaces are used for HA heartbeat communication
and the fabric backplane interfaces are used for data communication.
The FortiGate-5001B board also supports high-end FortiGate features including 802.1Q
VLANs, multiple virtual domains, 802.3ad aggregate interfaces, and FortiOS Carrier.
The FortiGate-5001B board includes the following features:
• Eight front panel SFP+ 10-gigabit interfaces (port1 to port8) accelerated by two
FortiASIC NP4 network processors. Can also be configured as SFP 1-gigabit
interfaces.
• Two front panel 10/100/1000Base-T copper 1-gigabit management Ethernet
interfaces (mgmt1 and mgmt2). These interfaces are for management purposes only
and cannot forward traffic.
• Two base backplane 1-gigabit interfaces (base1 and base2) for HA heartbeat
communications across the FortiGate-5000 chassis base backplane.
• Two fabric backplane 10-gigabit interfaces (fabric1 and fabric2) for data
communications across the FortiGate-5000 chassis fabric backplane.
• Two NP4 network processors that provide firewall and IPsec VPN acceleration for the
port1 to port8 interfaces.
• Internal 64 GByte SSD for storing log messages, DLP archives, SQL log message
database, historic reports, IPS packet archiving, file quarantine, WAN Optimization
byte caching and web caching.
• One RJ-45 RS-232 serial console connection.
• 1 USB connector.
• NMI switch (for troubleshooting boards with part number P10633-01 and up, as
recommended by Fortinet Support).
• Mounting hardware.
• LED status indicators.
