Fortinet Security Integration

[_up__bb_]

I have found a Solution Brief about a security integration about Extreme Networks and Fortinet,
http://learn.extremenetworks.com/rs/extreme/images/Fortinet-SB.pdf
We have a lot of customer with this two vendor and this type of integration can add value at our works, but I cannot find any doc that explain HOW TO deploy this type of scenario/integration ...
Is only a marketing doc or there are behind this partnership a real integration?
Someone have already made somthing similar?

Hi roberto the configuration guide for this feature is now part of the Extreme Control online help.

If you need an standalone document, you can use the previous version published here:

https://extranet.extremenetworks.com/downloads/Pages/dms.ashx?download=9eb4a775-2f5e-499f-8205-27366...

just note that since Extreme control 7.0 the installation comes pre-installed with Extreme control and you don't need to install it manually.

For a dynamic response scenario, we are developing a generic DIPS plugin probably for the end of the year.

To deploy a dynamic response scenario with fortinet you must configure the DIPS feature for paloalto and configure teh fortinet firewall to send syslog messages with the format defined in the PaloAlto plugin.

Hi. Of course there is a lot of technology behind the integration on both ends = Forti and Extreme. I do have several happy customers (small and big also). I suggest you contact extreme Value Added Partner/resseller or Extreme representative. To demonstrate/test/implement the solution. The list of partners is available on our corporate website. Unfortunately the implementation can be very complex and also very simple (based on the network equipment). Good luck Zdenek

the version 2.x is for NetSight 6.y
The Extreme Management Center does have Connect version 3.0 included in the product = as stated by Ronald.

https://extranet.extremenetworks.com/downloads/Pages/OneFabricConnect.aspx -> Partner Resources -> there is documentation available.

the integration with Fortigate is now being enhanced => new version will be even better from scalability point of view.
