Introduction
This guide provides information about the FortiCloud service.
It is divided into three sections:
•The FortiCloud User Guide, a list of pages and features available in the FortiCloud web interface,
•the Frequently Asked Questions, a collection of general and specific information about the service,
•and the FortiCloud Cookbook, a series of short-form tutorials that teach how to perform tasks in FortiCloud, ranging from basic to complex.
Overview of FortiCloud
FortiCloud is a hosted security and wireless infrastructure management solution and log retention service for FortiGate, FortiWiFi, and FortiAPdevices.
It gives you centralized reporting, traffic analysis, configuration management, and log retention without the need for additional hardware and software, with the following feature set:
•Simple provisioning of large scale security networks
•Configuration and device management from a single pane of glass
•Hosted log retention and cloud-based storage
•Built-in protection from APTswith FortiGuard sandboxing technology
•Instant security intelligence and analytics with FortiView
•Exceptional networkvisibilitywith FortiCloud reporting
•FortiCloud transport security and service availability
FortiCloud also integrates these other Fortinet services: FortiCloud Sandbox, and FortiDeploy.
FortiCloud Sandbox
FortiCloud Sandbox is a service that uploads and analyzes files marked as suspicious bythe FortiGate AntiVirus.
In a proxy-based antivirus profile on a FortiGate, the administratorselects Inspect Suspicious Files with FortiGuard Analytics to enable a FortiGate unit to upload suspicious files to FortiGuard for analysis. Once uploaded, the file will be executed and the resulting behavior analyzed for risk. If the file exhibits risky behavioror is found to contain a virus, a newvirus signature is created and added to the FortiGuard antivirus signature database. The next time the FortiGate unit updates its antivirus database it will have the newsignature.
FortiGuard Labs considers a file suspicious if it exhibits some unusual behavior, yet does not contain a known virus (the behaviors that FortiCloud Analytics considers suspicious will change depending on the current threat climate and other factors).
The FortiCloud console enables administrators to view the status of any suspicious files uploaded: Pending, Clean, Malware, or Unknown. The console also provides data on time, user, and location of the infected file for forensic analysis. Sandboxing is available in both Free and Paid FortiCloud subscriptions.
FortiDeploy
FortiDeploy is a product built into FortiCloud as a feature, for one-touch provisioning when devices are deployed, locallyorremotely. FortiDeployprovides deployment forFortiAPsintoaCloudAP Network, and automatic connection of FortiGates to be managed by FortiCloud or a FortiManager unit.
At time of purchase, you can order a FortiDeploy SKU in addition to your FortiCloud subscription.
When you visit forticloud.com and enterthe Bulk FortiCloud Key, you will see a list of serial numbers from the order that contained the FortiDeploy SKU. Once you confirm that the devices are connected, you can perform basic configuration on the devices remotely, such as sending a FortiManagerIPto all remote FortiGate devices, so they can be managed remotely.
FortiDeploy Support startsthe moment you send an email to cs@fortinet.com, which can also be contacted if you have already purchased a FortiCloud subscription and would like to purchase FortiDeployto add to yourexisting subscription.

How does FortiCloud work?
One or multiple FortiGate/FortiWiFi/FortiAP units are registered with FortiCloud under a single account. This is done via the licensing widget in the device dashboard or at www.forticloud.com. The logs from each device are periodically sent to FortiCloud and stored.
Logs are sent automatically to FortiCloud for storage and processing. You configure what to log, including just Traffic and Event logs or including security logs such asAntivirus, Application Control, IPS, etc.
From the recorded logs, reports can be generated to indicate trendswithin networktraffic, individual useractivity, and security threats across different applications. Drilldown capability and real-time alerting are also available.
FortiCloud also creates copies of FortiGate/FortiWiFi/FortiAP configurations that can be used for backup and restore orto provision newdevices. AVPN tunnel can be used to bring up the console of a device behind a firewall, allowing you to perform configuration orpolicy changes remotely.
How does FortiCloud compare with FortiPortal and FortiAnalyzer?
FortiCloud is an ideal solution for customers who do not want to implement a separate hardware solution such as the FortiAnalyzer 200D series. However, it does not have all the features of a FortiAnalyzer. A high-level comparison isshown below:
How do I confirm which version of FortiCloud is currently in use?
Clickon the FortiCloud name in the title bar, orthe About linkto see the build/version number.
Which languages are supported by FortiCloud?
FortiCloud currently supports two languages: English and Japanese. These can be selected via the web portal login page. Other languages may be available in other regions.
Is there any way for me to choose which Data Center my logs are stored in?
Yes. When you initially create your account in FortiCloud, it will offeryou a choice of data centerto use. Data and accounts cannot be transferred between data centers, so migrating will require a new account.
How can I provide feedback or request improvements to FortiCloud?
On the top right of everyscreen is an envelope icon, which will open a feedbacksubmission form. Feedbackis greatly appreciated, but Fortinet cannot guarantee individual responses to any requests.
Is there a European FortiCloud instance?
Yes. As of Q2 2016, the FortiCloud service has been available through our new Regional FortiCloud Datacenter, geographically aimed at our European customer base, and is completely isolated from the North American instance.
All analysis, reporting, management and storage capabilities are provided locally, with full access to our global threat intelligence databases, with the dual benefit of isolating intercontinental data and providing performance improvements and lower latency to the end device.
If I am an existing customer in EMEA, will my data be transferred to the new Datacenter, or will it remain in its current location?
Any existing units will remain logging to their original destinations. If you wish to change this, please contact our Customer Services. No existing logs will be moved as part of this process.
Is there an account designed for MSSP-scale operations?
FortiCloud has a premium account type, designed for Managed Security Service Providers: a Multi-Tenancy Account.
AMulti-TenancyAccount is a one-yearservice for an administratorto create and manage multiple sub-accounts. It also allows devicesto be moved between these accounts. Each of the sub accounts can be allocated
administrators, with full or read-only access, allowing you more control overthe provision of a managed service.
To activate a Multi-TenancyAccount, please request a quote forthe following SKU:
“FCLE-10-FCLD0-161-02-DD”
through your Fortinet Partner or Reseller.
What are the new features in Version 3.2?
The majorfeature in 3.2 is FortiGate Configuration Management, which allowsforsynching of connected FortiGate devices, uploading and downloading their config files and making in-FortiCloud changes that can then be reflected in the devices.
FortiGate Configuration Management is included as part of the FortiCloud Subscription service. In 3.2.0, it is available to all FortiCloud users as a trial, but as of 3.2.1 it will require a 1 Year Management, Log Retention and Analysis Contract. At that point, you will be able to view device configurations without a contract, but will no longer be able to edit them.
This feature advances FortiCloud as a universal cloud management platform, and many other small features have been added in 3.2 to support this concept:
•more visibility and detail from FortiView
•simpler Log viewing with a log data sidebar
•FortiGate Event Management (with alert emails forevents such as DeviceTunnel Down and Power Supply Failure)
•Config Deployment Scheduling, allowing you to schedule remote config uploading, firmware upgrades, and scripts
•On-Demand submission of files to FortiCloud Sandbox for analysis
AP Networkand MSSPfeatures have been updated in 3.2 aswell, with remote FortiPresence configuration, QoS Profiles, increased IPS capabilities, preliminarysupport for FAP-U models, AP Networkalert emails, and a new REST API forqueryingAP Networkinformation.
The API is currently only available on a limited basis. Contact Fortinet Support if you require access.
What was added in previous versions?
3.1
Two-Factor Authentication has been added to the management interface. FortiGate management remains as a public beta service in3.1, but has been expanded to allowimporting of the current configuration from a deployed FortiGate. Sandbox functionality has also been improved, showing the number of files waiting for processing.
A new Enterprise-level license is now available as a paid upgrade for connected APs, covering a number of advanced RF settings, and blocking of intra-SSI D traffic. This license includes support for the FAP-S series APs, with included FortiGuard subscription and Bonjour relaying support.
3.0
Location-based analytics with FortiPresence have been added. To support FortiPresence features, social media logins forGuest WiFi Accounts have been integrated into FortiCloud. Also newin 3.0 was enhanced FortiOS management, Fast Roaming between AP units, and enhanced AP configuration in NAT Mode.
2.5
Multi-tenancywas added; and a series of wireless-related features such as guest management, external captive portals, security per SSID (forthe Smart AP), AP location floor plan and AP radio adjustment. Also added were PCI compliance reports and integration with Advanced Threat Protection.
Licensing and Registration
Is there an easy way to test drive FortiCloud?
Yes, you can test drive FortiCloud byvisiting the FortiCloud portal, and selecting the Live Demo linkat the bottom of the FortiCloud login screen. Thiswill showa FortiCloud account with populated devices and logsto simulate a live environment.
What is the price of FortiCloud?
A no-charge service option is available with unlimited storage is available for one week.
Effective in FortiCloud 3.0, we are replacing the 200Gb-per-device service with a annual-subscription-based service, with one, two, orthree-yearservice terms.The newservice provides 1 year of history, regardless of size.
FortiCloud will be available for all FortiGate devices up to the FG3200D.
To activate FortiCloud after the free trial ends, you will need to acquire a subscription license based on the following SKUs, available with 1,2, and 3-year service terms:
Activation on device requires FortiOS 5.4.2 or newer. The Indicatorof Compromise (IOC) Service requires an existing FortiCloud subscription.
For pricing information, please contact your Fortinet partner or reseller.
Do I need a support contract to enable the service?
No, but you do need to register each FortiGate/FortiWiFi/FortiAP on the Service and Support Portal at https://support.fortinet.com. Ifsvery important to register each device in your network, orthe service (free or subscribed) cannot be enabled.
How do I subscribe to a FortiGate Analysis and Log Retention contract?
To upgrade to a subscription, you need to:
1.Obtain a license (Contract Number) from your Fortinet reseller.
2.Click on the Upgrade icon in the FortiGate/FortiWiFi dashboard licensing widget.

Technical Questions
What security and redundancy has been built into the service?
Logs are transferred between devices and the FortiCloud storage are transmitted via an encrypted link. All system elements are duplicated for redundancy.
How do I verify my network is PCI compliant?
FortiCloud makes it easy to deploy, monitor and verify PCI compliance. FortiCloud's security feature set addresses PCI Data Security Standards 3.0, helping customersto build and maintain a secure network, protect cardholderdata, maintain a vulnerability management program, implement strong control measures, and monitor network security.
Does my FortiGate unit require a hard drive to use FortiCloud?
The FortiGate does not require a hard drive if logs are being uploaded to FortiCloud in real-time, which can be enabled in the Log Setting page in the FortiGate interface. FortiCloud is a convenient alternative to a hard drive for devices too small to contain one, such as FortiWiFi units.
Does FortiCloud support devices from other vendors?
FortiCloud only supports FortiGate, FortiWiFi and FortiAP products. It does not currently support other company's products for log retention.
Which FortiGate and FortiWiFi models does FortiCloud support?
FortiGate
All 2U (3200D) and smaller FortiGates are supported bythe FortiCloud environment.
FortiWiFi
All FortiWiFi models 20 to 90 support FortiCloud natively through the dashboard Licensing widget.
FortiAP
All FortiAP, FortiAP-S, and FortiAP-C models are supported by FortiCloud. FortiAP-U will be supported by Q3 2017.
Which versions of FortiOS does FortiCloud support?
FortiCloud is available for all devices at FortiOSversion 4.3 or later, but forfull feature support, the most current available version should be deployed. Devices running FortiOS version 4.2 or earlier may not be able to access FortiCloud. Consult your device's documentation for more information.
What port numbers are used by FortiGate devices connecting to FortiCloud?
Please note that these should be required by outbound traffic only. On request, we can supplythe destination IP
When are scheduled reports sent to administrators?
Scheduled reports are sent to administrator email addresses between 2 AM and 6 AM if automatic report delivery (Daily/Weekly/Monthly) is enabled.
Why can I not see any management functions?
You must first enable the management tunnel on the FortiGate/FortiWiFi device. On the device, use the following commands in the CLI:
config system central-management set mode backup
set type fortiguard
end
end
Can I set up high availability (HA) logging with FortiCloud?
FortiCloud accepts inbound logs from each device independently, and has no means of detecting that connected devices are in an HA cluster. Though multiple HA clustered devices will theoretically send identical logs to FortiCloud, if one device stops logging or is unable to reach FortiCloud, the other devices will not send logs on its behalf.
Do I need to purchase a subscription for each FortiGate in an HA pair?
Yes. FortiCloud handles each device separately, regardless of configuration.
FortiCloud Sandbox
How does Cloud Sandboxing and AV Submission work?
In a proxy-based antivirus profile on a FortiGate, the administratorselects Inspect Suspicious Files with FortiGuard Analytics to enable a FortiGate unit to upload suspicious files to FortiGuard for analysis. Once uploaded, the file will be executed and the resulting behavior analyzed for risk. If the file exhibits risky behavioror is found to contain a virus, a newvirus signature is created and added to the FortiGuard antivirus signature database. The next time the FortiGate unit updates its antivirus database it will have the newsignature.
FortiGuard Labs considers a file suspicious if it exhibits some unusual behavior, yet does not contain a known virus (the behaviors that FortiCloud Analytics considers suspicious will change depending on the current threat climate and other factors).
The FortiCloud console enables administrators to view the status of any suspicious files uploaded: Pending, Clean, Malware, or Unknown. The console also provides data on time, user, and location of the infected file for forensicanalysis.
Why can I not see a function or tab for AV Submission/Sandboxing?
You must first enable Cloud Sandboxing on the FortiGate device, and then submit a suspicious file to cause the tab to appear.
What is the turnaround time on Cloud Sandboxing and AV Submission?
It can be anywhere from 10 minutes (for automated sandbox detection) to upto10 hours (if FortiGuard Labs is involved).
Is there a service description for FortiCloud Sandbox?
Yes, a full current service description is available online here:
http://docs.fortinet.com/uploaded/files/3429/FortiSandbox-Cloud-Service-Description.pdf
AP Network
What is the FortiCloud AP Network feature?
This feature allows administrators to remotely configure APs, modify wireless management settings and visualize wireless-related events. Examples of configuration changes include AP name and SSIDconfiguration, power settings and rogue AP detection. Wireless management settings include RADIUS details, standard users/groups/guests and SSIDs/security. There are a robust set of visualizations including real-time and historical charting of traffic usage, AP client counts and client usage. Thinkof it as a comprehensive wayto manage your wireless infrastructure via the cloud.
How can I register a FortiAP to my FortiCloud account?
Supported FortiAP models include a sticker with a unique FortiCloud key affixed. This key must be entered into the FortiCloud interface to register the FortiAP to your FortiCloud account.
What is the recommended FortiAP version to use with FortiCloud 3.2?
We recommend FortiAPversion 5.6 or laterforuse with FortiCloud 3.2. It is always our recommendation that you run the latest GAfirmware on your FortiAPs.
What port numbers are used by FortiAPs connecting to FortiCloud?
Please note that these should be required by OUTBOUND traffic only. On request, we can supply the destination IPaddressesto add to an outbound policy, if required.
What happens if my AP loses connection with FortiCloud?
If yourAP loses connection to FortiCloud, or in the unlikely event that the FortiCloud service is unavailable, then all functionswhich are not hosted in FortiCloud will continue to workwithout interruption. The configuration is held locally on the AP, and will continue to function.
OnlySSID'swith authentication in FortiCloudwill be disrupted: FortiCloud-hosted CaptiveWeb Portals, and FortiCloud User Groups. Open, WPA2 PSK, and WPA2 802.1XRADIUS SSID'sthat are not using FortiCloud-
hosted authentication (such as ones using local RADI US server or Local Captive Portal) will continue to work uninterrupted.
I have an older FortiAP that doesn't include a FortiCloud key. Is there some way I can add my device to a FortiCloud AP Network?
Older FortiAPs that have shipped without a FortiCloud key can be added to FortiCloud. Open the FortiAP management interface, and in WTP-Configuration select FortiCloud. Enteryour FortiCloud credentials, and select Apply. Login to FortiCloud and select Inventory > Unused APs to see the list of FortiAPs. Select Deploy to AP Network > Existing AP Network.
What FortiAP models are supported by FortiCloud AP Networks?
The AP Network functionality within FortiCloud is supported by all FortiAP models.
Does the FortiCloud AP Network feature support FortiWiFi?
FortiWiFi models are not currentlysupported forwireless configuration.
Is there a minimum firmware version that I need to run on a FortiAP for the FortiCloud AP Network feature to work?
The FortiAP must be running FortiAP OS 5.2 at a minimum. It is recommended to run the latest software build on the FortiAP to guarantee FortiCloud functionality.
Does my internal wireless/networking traffic get sent to FortiCloud?
No. Fortinet uses an out of band management architecture, meaning that only management data flows through the FortiCloud infrastructure. No usertraffic passesthrough Fortinet's datacenters, and your data stays on your network.
Do I need to use a FortiGate in conjunction with a FortiCloud AP Network?
No. We recommend you registeryour FortiAP to be directly managed by FortiCloud. You do not need to use a FortiGate unit as a proxy to manage FortiAPs from FortiCloud.
Is there different pricing/licensing for AP Network functionality?
There are no additional fees or licensing required to manage FortiAPs from FortiCloud.
Can FortiAP devices be managed by FortiCloud and work with FortiPresence?
Yes, FortiPresence is supported by FortiAPs and managed by FortiCloud in version 3.1.
Forlocation analytics, the APswill use a Push API to talkto the FortiPresence cloud. You can configure this under AP Network > Configuration > Miscellaneous.
Is there a maximum number of FortiAPs that can be managed via FortiCloud?
There is no licensing limit for the number of FortiAPs that can be managed with FortiCloud.
How does roaming work for a FortiCloud managed AP?
Starting with FortiAP 5.4 and FortiCloud 3.0, APswhich are in the same management subnet will talkto each other using encrypted communications and share station and authentication information. This means that when a client connected via Captive Web Portal, 802.1Xor PSK moves from one access point to another, there is no re�authentication required and a session transition should happen once the client decides to roam.
What is the admin password for my AP?
When you add an AP Network, you are asked to define a password for it. This password is used as the admin password for all APs inside that AP Network. The password can be changed inside the AP Network under Configuration > Miscellaneous.
What is Social Media Captive Web Portal?
Social Media Captive Web Portal isthe functionalitythat creates a Captive Web portal where a user's social media login is used as authentication. This is hosted in FortiCloud, and currently supports Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and Twitteraccounts. The Captive Web Portal can be customized with different colors and logos. We recommend a Terms of Use be added to the Captive Web Portal, matching with the legal requirements of your jurisdiction. Please see the disclaimer on the configuration page for more details.
What is the NAT IP Subnet of my AP SSID Configuration?
If you want each APto provide its own AP NAT boundary ratherthan bridge users directly onto the local network, you can now assign the Subnet forthe APsto use in the SSIDconfiguration.
Note: A known limitation is that the subnet will be assigned only on the 2.4Ghz radio. The 5Ghz radio will use a subnet 17 octets higher. For example, if the 2.4Ghz radio is set to use 10.10.10.1/24, the 5Ghz radio will use 10.10.17.1/24. This limitation will be addressed in a future software release.
What is Floorplan in Maps?
In FortiCloud 3.0, you can nowadd a Floorplan, and zoom into it to place yourAPs and see theirstatistics and RF information. Previously, you could use Google Maps integration to see a floorplan overlaid over a building, but now full zoom and positioning controlls have been added.
What are Folders?
Folders are a simple way to group AP's together for management purposes, and can be used to organize APs into groups, sites or any other organization you see fit. You can create subfolders and also assign new addresses and locationstoAPs.
How do Dynamic VLANs work?
RADIUSservers can be configured to pass class attributes backin response to a successful authentication. One of these attributes isthe VLAN to which the client should be assigned. With an Enterprise license and this feature enabled, it is possible to place different types of users connected to the same SSIDinto different VLANs, based on their user credentials.
What is Bonjour Relay?
Bonjour is a protocol where (typically Apple) devices broadcast their services. For example, an Apple TV sends a Bonjourbroadcast, so that an iPad knows it isthere and can connect to it.
The issue isthat these broadcasts are layer2- so if the iPad and the Apple TVare on different VLANs, then they will not be able to talk. Bonjour Relay is a simple mechanism to fixthis. The FAP-Sseries of APs can be set to operate with a service network(where the Apple TVis), and a client network(where the iPad is), allowing the FAP-S to re-transmit the Bonjour requests from the service network onto the client network, allowing the iPad to learn where the Apple TV is and create a session.
To set it up, enterone or more services as Service VLAN and Client VLAN, along with a definition of the service, e.g. you may chooseto onlysendthe information about theApple TVto a meeting room, and not the printerin reception. Once these services have been defined, simplyselect the APthat will perform the Bonjour Relay function.
What is Blocking of Intra-SSID Traffic?
This feature blocks all trafficfrom one client to another on the same SSID. This helps to avoid a common issue of clients sending data between themselves on the same SSID, without traversing and being protected bythe firewall.
Why do I need to change my Radio Rates in the Enterprise Management section?
Wireless operates at many different data rates based on the quality of the radio signal. For example, an 802.11n 2.4GHz client is capable of running at 450 Mbs on a 3x3 AP, but it is equally capable of running at 1 Mbps.
Inconsistent radio rates can lead to clients remaining connected to an AP long afterthey should have reconnected to a betterAP. Aclient running at 1 Mbps has great range, but its slowthroughputwill have a degrading effect on the networkperformance as a whole. The newdata rate control feature in 3.1 allowsyou to restrict which data rates are allowed, to ensure clients that are too far away are not slowing down the overall system.
Indicator of Compromise (IOC) Service
What is the FortiCloud Indicator of Compromise Service?
FortiCloud Indicator of Compromise (IOC) Service is a new service that alerts administrators about newly-found infections and threats to devices in their network. By analyzing UTM logging and activity, the service can provide a comprehensive overview of threats to the network.
What kind of threats can the IOC Service detect?
IOC can detect three types of threats, based on our evolving FortiGuard database:
•Malware 一 Malicious programs residing on infected endpoints.
•PUP— Potentially unwanted programs, such as Spyware, Adware, and toolbars.
•Unknown 一 Threats detected by signature but not associated with any known malware.
How do I get access to the IOC Service?
The free version of IOC is currently available on all accounts in the North america data center.
Non-Multi-Tenancy Account
In the FortiGate list, lookfor red 'Threats/Suspicious'text underneath the System Status, which will only appear if the FortiGate has detected anythreats. Clickon the text to open the IOC interface.
Multi-Tenancy Account
In the FortiGate list, lookto the far right. A'bomb' icon will be visible next to the other configuration icons, if your FortiGate has detected anythreats. Select the bomb icon to open the IOC interface.
Does the IOC Service require a subscription?
The basicform of the IOC is free, which will alert you to threats and automatically prepare a comprehensive threat report. Threats listed will only provide partial IPs of infected devices: serverand subnet.
You can purchase a subscription forthe complete IOC by opening the Howto Buy page in the FortiCloud IOC site, and completing the purchase process.
Asubscription grants you access to IPWhitelisting, which allowsyou to narrowyour malware search by excluding safe IPs and domains, and Alert Emails, which notifyyou directly of detected networkthreats. It will also allow you to view the full I Ps of infected devices, allowing you to better control their access to your network.
How do I register my subscription code once I've purchased one?
You will receive yoursubscription code by email. Visit the Fortinet Support portal at http://support.fortinet.com, and log into your customeraccount. On the Asset page, registerthe subscription code as if it were a product serial number, and then enterthe serial number of the FortiCloud-connected device that you want the service to monitor.
FortiDeploy
What is FortiDeploy?
FortiDeploy is a product built into FortiCloud as a feature, for one-touch provisioning when devices are deployed, locally or remotely. FortiDeploy provides deployment for FortiAPs into a Cloud AP Network, and automatic connection of FortiGates to be managed by FortiCloud or a FortiManager unit.
What features does FortiDeploy provide?
•One touch deployment for FortiAPs into a Cloud AP Network
•One touch deployment for FortiGates to be FortiCloud managed or mananged by a FortiManager IP
How does FortiDeploy work?
When you visit forticloud.com and enterthe Bulk FortiCloud Key, you will see a list of serial numbers from the order that contained the FortiDeploy SKU. Once you confirm that the devices are connected, you can perform some basic configuration on the devices remotely, such as sending a FortiManagerIPto all remote FortiGate devices, so they can be managed remotely.
How do I purchase FortiDeploy?
At time of purchase, order a FortiDeploy SKU in addition to your other purchases, and enter it in FortiCloud. Once the FortiGate's serial number is associated with your customer account, you have the option to deploy the devices in either FortiCloud or FortiManager. FortiDeploy can also push an IPto each FortiManager. Support starts the moment you send an email to cs@fortinet.com.
What is the price of FortiDeploy?
FortiDeploy must be purchased on every PO using FDP-SINGLE-USE SKU. The nominal fee is $100/PO.
What happens if you forget to order FortiDeploy on the PO?
If you forget to order FortiDeploy on the PO, please send an email to the Fortinet Customer Service and Support Team: cs@fortinet.com, and they can manually registeryourserial numbers and generate a Bulk FortiCloud Key.
Will my FortiGuard and FortiCare services start automatically?
No. FortiGuard and FortiCare serviceswill start onlyafteryou registeryourserial numbers. Bulkregistration of FortiGuard and FortiCare is available, but you will need to send a direct request after registration to cs@fortinet.com.
What are the devices supported by FortiDeploy?
•While FortiCloud supports all FortiGates up to the 3240C, FortiDeploy is only available up to the 200E, as we recommend that larger deployments be handled bytrained personnel.
•All FortiWiFi devices
•All FortiAPdevices
Which versions of FortiOS does FortiDeploy support?
FortiDeploy is available for FortiGate/FortiWiFi devices at FortiOSversion 5.2.2 or later, and FortiAP devices at version 5.0.9 orlater.
Are there any complications if I"ve recently upgraded FortiOS?
From FortiOS 5.2.3 onward, the CLI command auto-join-forticloud is enabled by default, and must be enabled for FortiDeployto function correctly.
But upgrading the FortiOSfirmware from 5.0.xto 5.2.2 or laterautomatically disables auto-join- forticloud, which will need to be re-enabled or FortiDeploywill not function.
You can re-enable it through the CLI or by factory resetting your device (but factory resetting will reset all firewall configuration).
config system fortiguard get
set auto-join-forticloud enable
end
end
After changing this setting, restart the device and ensure that traffic is being sent to FortiCloud to verify that it has been configured correctly.
What if I am connected to FortiCloud but the device is not cloud-managed?
Double-checkthat central management is set to FortiGuard.
In the CLI console:
config system central-management set type fortiguard end
Reboot the device, login to FortiCloud and try to manage the device.
What if a device is deployed behind a NAT device (such as a cable modem)?
AFortiGate's default “internal” IPisin the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet, and so IPconflicts can occurwith FortiDeploy-
managed devices. The solution is to unset the default IP for each of the devices in the CLI console:
config system interface edit internal unset ip end end
Or change the internal interface's IP in the web-based management interface.
