Every FortiGate unit comes with a free 30-day FortiGuard Web Filtering trial license.
FortiGuard license management is performed by Fortinet servers. There is no need to
enter a license number. The FortiGate unit automatically contacts a FortiGuard service
point when enabling FortiGuard category blocking. Contact Fortinet Technical Support to
renew a FortiGuard license after the free trial.
You can globally enable FortiGuard Web Filtering in System > Maintenance > FortiGuard
and then configure FortiGuard Web Filtering options for each profile in Firewall >
Protection Profiles. For more information, see “FortiGuard Web Filtering options” on
page 413.
FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service
FortiGuard Analysis and Management Service is a subscription-based service that
provides remote management services, including logging and reporting capabilities for all
FortiGate units. These services were previously available only on FortiAnalyzer and
FortiManager units.
The subscription-based service is available from the FortiGuard Analysis and
Management Service portal web site, which provides a central location for configuring
logging and reporting and remote management, and for viewing subscription contract
information, such as daily quota and the expiry date of the service.
Configuring the FortiGate unit for FDN and FortiGuard subscription services
