A minute in I paused the video and bought the book. Now time to finish the video

[@paulosns25]

I did the same and now I see your comment!

[@NetSecAcademy]

Did the same 😂

[@sabotocki]

[@robertshowe2417]

Think there will be an update to this book soon? with 7.0?

[@moronMusicYT]

Wow, Mike I remember you from ESD. Glad to see you're still in it, like the videos my man!!

[@RickEstrada]

Dude why the videos lit so dark and moody? Reminds me of Richmond, the goth that lives in the server room in “the IT crowd” 🤣 Anyway, good info as always 👍🏻

[@panteliskm9156]

Can you make a video about fortigate conserve mode... and problem resolve senarios?

Thanks for this. I really need something more in depth at the moment. Gonna buy immediately. Awesome haircut also.

[@loganbat1310]

Bought the book because you told me to and to help you with a steady income so you can continue receiving haircuts.

[@FortinetGuru]

HAHA

@@FortinetGuru Is there a way to reach out to you? I'd like to ask you a question on purchasing a NGFW for home to study on.

[@tepitokura]

Dude, when are you coming back?

[@devilmaycry10001]

Was wondering the same thing. Hope your doing fine!

[@mariyammalchetty2163]

Thanks for helpful tip..

[@shanearleighagres9252]

What is the difference between the other "free flowing edition"?

[@FortinetGuru]

No clue. I read the physical copy

[@fortinetpress6525]

The Free Flow edition is essentially a PDF replica which is not compatible with some e-readers. The other ebook is formatted for Kindle eBooks.

[@shanearleighagres9252]

thanks! im buying

[@greggotcher9336]

Just wondering if this is still relevant now that FortiOS is at 7.0.X and 7.2 just came out?

[@FortinetGuru]

The overall concept is still there. While newer versions of code change some default behavior and add more features the meat of how the device performs is relatively the same.

[@RowanKaag]

Good video and like the haircut

[@FortinetGuru]

Thanks, trying to even it out. The part was working its’ way to the other side too much LOL

[@kellybaker2682]

I'm crash coursing on Fortinet - our small office just got a 60F and it's on me to learn it and configure it. I have watched several of your videos - THANKS!!!!! You have mentioned several times not to use the latest firmware, but you haven't mentioned (that I have seen) the latest version that you would feel comfortable putting into a production (small office

[@satra1725]

Link me.

Hi Mike where are you?

[@FortinetGuru]

I’m alive. New videos soon

[@youdrhnews]

By far the worst written technology book ever. I taught the auther was joking about the typos he made, but really it is close to unreadable! Clearly this book was not redacted. Not to mention that there is no structure or any cohesion in teaching the reader. If you are used to Cisco books, do not buy this one!

[@CHINMAY4YOU]

This book is shit
