It is not complete nor very detailled, but provides the basic commands for troubleshooting network related issues that are not resolvable via the GUI. I am not focused on too many memory, process, kernel, etc. details. These must only be used if there are really specific problems. I am more focused on the general troubleshooting stuff. I am using it personally as a cheat sheet / quick reference and will update it from time to time. Coming from Cisco, everything is “show”. With Fortinet you have the choice confusion between show | get | diagnose | execute . Not that easy to remember. It is “ get router info6 routing-table” to show the routing table but “ diagn...

From MPLS to SD-WAN to SASE: An Evolution of Enterprise Networking

From MPLS to SD-WAN to SASE: An Evolution of Enterprise Networking The way we do business is changing. As critical business applications migrate to the cloud, and the mobile workforce continues to grow, networking and security solutions need to evolve in order to meet the changing business needs. Gartner believes (and we agree) that the future of networking lies with SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) – the convergence of networking and security into one cloud service. Here’s why. 1990s – 2000s: MPLS and the Era of Clear Network Boundaries? Back in the day, networking models were hardware-centric and manually configured. Applications, data, and services lived within private datacenters and relied on remote access solutions to connect remote workers. Dedicated network connectivity, known as MPLS, was the preferred approach for connecting remote locations. MPLS provides predictable performance, low latency and packet loss, and central management. However, MPLS is ...
