hi i would like comment you one case that i have.
I have a fortigate 60Fand a router that get 600MBps bandwitch. The issue is when i have Fortigate enable in the network my computeronly reach 300MBps. Is it normal? and other issue is when i want to transferert files since one endpoint to server on local network the speed only reach 20 mbps.
is it normal? Why fortigate slow down network a lot
