FortiCare Service Contracts

Owners of a new FortiGate unit are entitled to 90 days of technical support services.

To continue receiving support services after the 90-day expiry date, you must

purchase a FortiCare Support Contract from an authorized Fortinet reseller or

distributor. Different levels of service are available so you can purchase the support

that you need. For maximum network protection, Fortinet strongly recommends that

all customers purchase a service contract that covers antivirus and attack definition

updates. See your Fortinet reseller or distributor for details of packages and pricing.

To activate the FortiCare Support Contract, you must register the FortiGate unit and

add the FortiCare Support Contract number to the registration information. You can

also register the FortiGate unit without purchasing a FortiCare Support Contract. In

that case, when you purchase a FortiCare Support Contract you can update the

registration information to add the support contract number.

A single FortiCare Support Contract can cover multiple FortiGate units. You must

enter the same service contract number for each of the FortiGate models covered by

the service contract.
