Fortinet Secure Ethernet Switches
As a Fortinet partner in Egypt, CITS offers Fortinet’s convergence of networking and security that enables Ethernet to become an extension of the security infrastructure through FortiSwitch and FortiLink. Simple to deploy and manage, FortiSwitch offers many features, including NAC, without additional licensing. Our broad portfolio of secure, simple, and scalable Ethernet switches is ideal for the campus, SD-Branch, and data center.
Fortinet LAN Edge Security
LAN edge equipment from Fortinet converges networking and security into a secure, simple-to-manage architecture with a single focal point for management and configuration. Through Secure Networking, Fortinet enables a secure LAN without the need for costly and complex licensing schemes.
Flexible Management Options
Fortinet Ethernet switches can be managed standalone or through FortiOS via the FortiLink protocol. Centralized management of FortiOS can be implemented on-premises or in the cloud through FortiGate or FortiManager. This simplifies deployment and provisioning of FortiSwitch with zero-touch auto-discovery, provisioning, and security policy assignment. FortiSwitch can be managed without a FortiGate via FortiSwitch Manager on-premises, and in the cloud via FortiLAN Cloud.
