FortiGate 30G and FortiWiFi 30G

What the FortiGate 30G is

The current Fortinet models table lists the 30G as the smallest model in its Entry-Level (Branch) group. It is a desktop firewall with four gigabit RJ45 ports (three internal, one WAN) that runs the same FortiOS as larger FortiGate models, with "Integrated SD-WAN" and "Built-in ZTNA capabilities" (Fortinet NGFW page).

It suits a micro office, a shop or a home office: a single broadband line, a handful of users and a few devices, with VPN back to head office. If you need more ports, a second WAN port for a backup line, PoE or 4G/5G, look at the FortiGate 50G.

FortiGate 30G models and part numbers

Press Add next to a part number to put it in your basket. Where a subscription or support option goes with the hardware, you choose it in the same step and it goes into your basket with the hardware. Part numbers come from the vendor; we confirm each line, quantity and term when we quote.

Choosing a 30G variant

UK FortiWiFi codes. Fortinet ships each FortiWiFi model with its radio regulatory domain set at the factory, shown by the suffix on the part number; the United Kingdom code is E (Fortinet KB, regional code suffixes), so every FortiWiFi part number on this page ends in -E. Order the -E code for UK use: the Fortinet KB says the region code is hard-coded and cannot be changed on FortiAP units.

FortiGate 30G specifications

Figures are Fortinet data-sheet figures. Fortinet: "All performance values are 'up to' and vary depending on system configuration." Threat protection is measured with firewall, IPS, application control and malware protection enabled, so it is the figure to size on. Source: FortiGate/FortiWiFi 30G Series Data Sheet (FGFWF-30G-DAT-R07, 14 Apr 2026) (opens in a new tab). The Product Matrix figures for the access points and switches a 30G can manage match the data sheet.

Feature note. Fortinet: "Content Disarm and Reconstruct, DNS and Video Filtering, and Inline CASB are not available for FortiGate/FortiWiFi 30G and 50G series in any OS build." If you need those, look at the FortiGate 70G or above. The 40F and 60F also lose them from FortiOS 7.4.4 (see their feature notes).

Subscriptions and support

The security services that make a FortiGate firewall a next-generation firewall come as FortiGuard subscriptions: the Advanced Threat Protection (ATP), Unified Threat Protection (UTP) or Enterprise Protection (ENT) bundle, the SD-WAN bundle, or single services, for 1, 3 or 5 years. Fortinet says "All bundles include FortiCare Premium Services"; FortiCare support can also be bought on its own. FortiGuard bundles compared explains what each bundle adds.

UTP is a common choice for a small office because it adds URL and DNS filtering to the ATP services; note the 30G feature note above for DNS and video filtering. FortiCare Essential is a desktop-only support tier in the Fortinet data sheets.

Hardware plus bundle part numbers

Fortinet also sells the hardware and a bundle as one part number: -BDL-950 codes are the hardware plus FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection, and -BDL-809 codes the hardware plus FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Enterprise Protection, each for 1, 3 or 5 years. They are an alternative to ordering the appliance and the bundle as two lines.

Accessories

Accessories Fortinet lists for this range (rack and wall mounting, power, console cables and FortiToken hardware tokens for MFA):

the Fortinet SP-RACKTRAY-02 rack tray fits its E, F and G series desktop models except the 30G, so it is not listed here; we can suggest a shelf for a comms cabinet.

Management

Each 30G is managed from its own FortiOS web interface, from FortiManager on site, or from FortiManagement Cloud (formerly FortiEdge Cloud) for small estates. A 30G can manage up to 8 FortiSwitch switches and 16 FortiAP access points (Fortinet Product Matrix, October 2026), so it can be the controller for a small office network.

How to order

How ordering works. Press Add next to a part number and it goes into your basket; where a security subscription or support contract goes with the firewall, you choose it in the same step. Add any accessories, then View basket and Request a quote. We check every line, quantity and term against your sites and come back with a personalised quote by email. Nothing is charged online. We can also design, supply, stage, install and configure the firewalls, VPNs and policies as a project, with the scope confirmed at quote (see network installation).
