Description: FOR SALE: FortiGate 50E seven-port Gigabit router/firewall running OpenWrt. FortiGate 50E is an entry-level commercial-grade router and firewall. With stock firmware, is it in support with the manufacturer until... we honestly don't know because we have conflicting information (hardware is said to be in support until November 2026, but the firmware the device was running is being phased out in September 2024 with no upgrade path). Anyway, it's not relevant because we replaced stock firmware with OpenWrt, an open-source operating system for networking equipment, so the device is completely decoupled from Fortinet licensing and services. This ensures the device will remain operational as long as it is physically working. To test the device and make port functions consistent with on-device labeling, we made a few changes to the initial pfSense configuration. A detailed configuration note will be provided to the buyer. Alternatively, the buyer could simply reset the software to its initial state. The device runs on an ARM Cortex-A9 processor (dual-core 1.6 GHz) with 2 GB of RAM and 128 MB of Flash storage. Networking is handled by Marvell 88xxxxx series chips. There are two WAN ports, each handled by a separate chip, and five LAN ports in a managed switch configuration. All ports are Gigabit. Console port is functional and operates at 9600 bps. The device is implemented in a desktop form factor. The case is all metal and exceptionally rigid. The device is passively cooled and completely silent. The device is in good physical condition (please review the photos). A power supply unit with a locking mechanism (no more accidental unplugging!) is included.
