FortiBlade-4010 module
Each FortiBlade-4010 module is an independent FortiGate-4000 antivirus firewall
capable of operating at gigabit network speeds. You can install up to 10
FortiBlade-4010 modules in the FortiGate-4000 chassis. Each FortiBlade-4010
module can operate as a standalone FortiGate-4000 antivirus firewall or you can
group FortiBlade-4010 modules into high availability (HA) clusters. Each cluster
provides failover between the FortiBlade-4010 modules in the cluster. In addition,
when operating in active-active HA mode, the FortiBlade-4010 clusters provide
antivirus scanning load balancing to increase virus scanning performance.
Note: Do not operate the FortiGate-4000 chassis with open slots on the front panel. For
optimum cooling performance, all front panel slots must either contain a FortiBlade-4010
module or be covered by an empty slot cover.
