What's new for FortiOS 7.2.4

This section lists the new hardware accelerations features added to FortiOS 7.2.4.

  • Traffic that passes through two EMAC-VLAN interfaces with NP7 offloading enabled is processed by the CPU and will not be offloaded to NP7 processors, see NP7 fastpath and EMAC VLANs.

  • You can use the ple-non-syn-tcp-action option of the config system npu command to protect a FortiGate with NP7 processors from non-SYN TCP attacks, see ple-non-syn-tcp-action {drop | forward}.

  • You can use the shaping-stats option of the config system npu command to record traffic shaper statistics for sessions offloaded to NP7 processors, see Recording NP7 traffic shaping statistics.
