Lots of ports: Many physical ports gives flexibility in interface configuration, segmentation, etc.
Feature‐rich: Beyond just firewall/NAT, it has VPN (both SSL and IPSec), application control, web filtering, intrusion prevention, etc.
Hardware acceleration: Fortinet’s ASICs (e.g. CP8) help with accelerating certain security functions
