Managing Migration
Migrating complex legacy firewall configurations to next-generation solutions presents issues and challenges. It may seem relatively simple at a high level, but any experienced security manager knows this is not the case and that proper planning is essential.

For example, a significant firewall migration challenge is NAT. When you migrate to FortiOS, legacy NAT rules often need to be merged. This is non-trivial and getting this wrong usually results in a loss of network connectivity. Fortinet’s vast experience and best practices in routing and NAT is imbedded in FortiConverter Service’s core engine, thus reducing the complexity and common errors when migrating NAT rules.

A one-time service add-on for new FortiGate appliances, FortiConverter Service makes the transition process more reliable and predictable, reducing human errors that occur in manual processes, along with timelines and costs. Simply upload the source configuration file to Fortinet, then receive your new, migrated FortiOS configuration file, with accompanying report for documentation and auditing, that you upload to your new FortiGate. Whether upgrading from a third-party firewall to the latest next-generation FortiGate, or trading in your well-used FortiGate for the latest model, Fortinet believes transitioning to next-generation security platforms should be as simple as possible.
