How Fortinet licensing works.

A FortiGate needs the appliance plus a FortiGuard security subscription. We size both and track every renewal date.

Option
What it means
Appliance and bundle
You buy the FortiGate, then a protection bundle such as Unified Threat Protection, for 1, 3, or 5 years.
FortiCare support
Included in the bundles, with firmware updates and hardware replacement.
Renewals
We remind you before expiry and renew on time, so protection never lapses.
