Role of the FortiWifi-30E-3G4G-INTL:
A small-branch wireless security appliance with integrated 3G/4G failover, providing basic UTM and wireless access for distributed sites.
Evolving Traffic Patterns:
Remote and mobile device use, higher encrypted traffic, and IoT expansion increase throughput and visibility requirements.
Modern Demands:
Cloud-delivered threat intelligence, centralized management, higher wireless performance, and secure SD-WAN are now required across distributed sites.
Strategic Upgrade:
Replace with modern secure access or edge platforms offering enterprise Wi-Fi, cloud-native security, centralized orchestration, and seamless cellular backup.
No Security Patches
Outdated devices won’t receive updates, leaving your network exposed to new vulnerabilities.
Lack of Vendor Support
Once support ends, there’s no access to Fortinet’s technical resources or RMA services.
Compliance Failures
Auditors may flag unsupported hardware as a violation of security and industry standards.
Operational Instability
Legacy devices may struggle with modern workloads, encrypted traffic, and cloud integrations.
Lifecycle Planning:
Track Fortinet GA → EOS → EOL → EOSL.
Seamless Migration:
Dedicated engineers ensure minimal downtime.
Future-Proof Security:
Replace with next-gen models aligned to your needs.
