Is the FortiGate 100F overkill for a single office?
Not if SSL inspection is on for everyone, user numbers are past about 75, or you need an HA pair. Below that a 60F is usually the sensible choice, and we will say so.

Overview
Fortinet FortiGate 100F Firewall — Supplied and Configured in the UK
The FortiGate 100F is the rack-mounted step up from the desktop range — built for head-office perimeters, higher user counts and SSL inspection at scale, and commonly deployed as an HA pair. We size, licence, configure and support it.

What the FortiGate 100F is built for
The 100F suits head offices and larger sites where full threat protection and SSL inspection run for everyone, and where downtime is not acceptable. Its port density and SFP options also make it a practical segmentation firewall inside a larger network.
- 1U rack appliance with high GbE port density plus SFP and SFP+ options
- Throughput headroom for IPS, application control and SSL inspection at scale
- Active-passive or active-active HA pairs for resilient head-office perimeters
- Secure SD-WAN hub for branch sites running 40F and 60F appliances
FortiGate 100F or 200F?
The 100F covers most UK head offices. Move to the 200F and above when inspected throughput, data-centre edge duties or internal segmentation demand more.
- 60F — branch and small head office, desktop form factor
- 100F — head office, HA pairs, SD-WAN hub duty
- 200F and above — data-centre edge, segmentation and heavy throughput

FAQs
Questions We Are Asked Most
Do you supply and configure HA pairs?
Yes. We build active-passive or active-active pairs, test failover in our workshop and hand over documented configuration.
Can the 100F act as the SD-WAN hub for our branches?
Yes — it is a common design, with branch 40F and 60F appliances building secure overlays back to the 100F at head office.
